firefighter challenge

hot 96 WSTO-FM: "The Firefighter Combat Challenge is coming to Evansville!

The Scott Firefighter Combat Challenge has been broadcast on ESPN for over a decade. The Challenge attracts hundreds of U.S. and Canadian municipal fire departments each year at more than 25 locations and is seen by millions of people worldwide. The Challenge seeks to encourage firefighter fitness and demonstrate the profession's rigors to the public. Wearing 'full bunker gear' and the SCOTT Air-Pak breathing apparatus, pairs of competitors simulate the physical demands of real-life firefighting by performing a linked series of five tasks including climbing the 5-story tower, hoisting, chopping, dragging hoses and rescuing a life-sized, 175 lb. 'victim' as they race against themselves, their opponent and the clock.

Join HOT 96 live at the Evansville Riverfront, October 2nd, 12-2pm for the Firefighter Combat Challenge!"
