Exercise for an emergency
A whole day in action with the fire department
24-hour exercises are very popular with young firefighters in Burgenland. One took place in Steinbrunn at the weekend.
A total of 17 youth members of the local fire department took part in the exercise. Shortly after arriving at the fire station on Friday, they got down to business: two small fires had to be extinguished. This was followed by the cleaning of the equipment before moving on to the next operation, a person rescue, without a break. However, the youngsters did not get much sleep: At 9 p.m., the alarm sounded again for a straw barn fire. The next mission followed at around 1 a.m. - a search operation in the Föhrenwald forest.
Saturday started with a breakfast for refreshment and a sports session before further training and operations followed. An exciting and exhausting 24-hour day ended with lunch together. In addition to working through the tasks, the focus is also on camaraderie - because friendships for life are always made in the youth fire department.
Youth members welcome
The Burgenland State Fire Brigade Association currently has more than 2175 committed girls and boys between the ages of 10 and 16 who have joined the youth fire department. Anyone who would like to join is welcome to contact the commander or a member of their local fire department.
