Congratulations to HRFE firefighter Ian Melanson who took home silver this weekend in Fredericton during the intense Firefit Championships
This competition creates an extremely challenging course to put firefighters technical and physical skills against each other. This would be amazing to see in person!

“The FireFit Championships is a competition based on fire fighting tasks commonly performed in emergency situations. There are many different levels of Competitors, from the seasoned 10 year veteran to the first time rookies. The FireFit Event is very demanding. Training prior to competition is imperative. Your first Event will be an eye opener but will give you a base to work from. You will meet many other first time Competitors as well as those who have made this their sport and have been competing for years. Take advantage of the fact that the course is open for inspection, in most cases, the day before the Event takes place. Come down and meet the FireFit Crew as well as other Competitors!”
