Located just south of Hampden (U.S. 285) on Kipling Blvd. the facility is situated on 10 acres of property. It is a first class training center and home of the largest fire station in the West Metro Fire District.
The training center will not only be a hub of activity for the West Metro District but will serve as a regional training center and will be utilized by other fire fighting agencies and the federal government.
The property includes a pond that stores water used in training activities, so water can be recycled. It also features geothermal utilities. The training buildings provide maximum flexibility to simulate a variety of fire fighting and rescue situations. Congratulations to Fire Chief Doug McBee and the entire organization. This is a project of which the department and community can be proud.
