Local Area First Responders Brave Chilly Waters for Ice Drill
ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS – Members of the Atlantic Highlands First Aid & Safety Squad, the Atlantic Highlands Fire Department and Keyport First Aid braved bone chilling temperatures to train for emergencies on the ice.
The organizations gathered at the Atlantic Highlands municipal harbor for the drill, which took place with temperatures in the teens.
"Today's drill was a success,” said Tom Hayden, AHFAS first lieutenant. “Our rescuers were able to practice in realistic conditions and new members became acquainted with the equipment and procedures.”
