Good afternoon CFTDA,
I just wanted to send a note that I am amazed at what all of you do day-in and day-out for the Fire Service, CFTDA, your individual programs, and schools. The last two years have definitely been very interesting, but we kept up with the changes in the face of everything that life threw at us. Many of you had great advancements in the last two years with new or updated campuses, equipment, technology, and that is fantastic. I hope and pray that 2022 is better for all of us and I look forward to seeing all of you in the new year in March in Fresno. We are a sum of the parts, and you all play a huge part in the direction of the Fire Service. I am thankful for all of you and all of what you do every day.
Very Respectfully,
Peter Cacossa
Good afternoon everyone,
I had a post of interest that I would like to share with all of you that came from Chris Baker and 1LT Matthew Epstein. Please see the attached memo regarding the explanation of Team Blaze. This is just another avenue for potential students or graduates to gain experience and make some money during fire season.
Very Respectfully,
Peter Cacossa
