HEN + Dinges Fire Demo Day | Greenup, IL

Join Dinges Fire Company, HEN Nozzles, and leading fire service manufacturers for a hands-on Demo Day at the Greenup Area Fire Protection District.

Firefighters will rotate through practical training stations focused on thermal imaging, hoseline movement, nozzle control, water application, and vehicle extrication. Attendees will also have opportunities to explore fire-service equipment and speak with participating manufacturers.

This is an opportunity to see equipment taken off the display table and put to work in realistic fireground applications.

Training Stations

• Thermal Imaging: Learn how to apply TIC data during suppression and search operations.

• Flow, Move & Take Control: Work on flowing the proper GPM while advancing an attack line, with an emphasis on nozzle firefighter body positioning, water application, backup firefighter positioning, and movement.

• Extrication Scenarios: Rotate through hands-on scenarios using AMKUS rescue tools to reinforce tool familiarity, problem-solving, and advanced cutting techniques.
