Description:

The Emergency Services Department is made up of several departments. The Fire Department will bring a fire truck to BRS headquarters in Kidsville, where scouts and their parents will learn about fire safety and about the firefighters who volunteer.

Scouts will then be taken to the Fire Department outpost via fire truck, where they will be given a chance to use a fire hose. Parents should bike along the fire truck (with kid carrier) for the ride back to Kidsville.

About Emergency Services Department:

Black Rock City's Emergency Services Department (ESD) is there when you need them months before the event officially starts, and are on-duty well after the last participant leaves to support the playa clean-up efforts. ESD provides Black Rock City with several different key areas of service; these services include Fire Fighting, Rescue, Hazardous Materials, Emergency and Non-Emergency Medical evaluation and treatment, Mental Health services (including sexual assault response), 911 Dispatch, and providing the two-way radio communications infrastructure for all of Black Rock City.
