Lafayette Fire Company will present Cadet Camp 2023 from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. on Friday, June 23, and from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, June 24. The hands-on, activity-based camp is open to children ages 8 to 14.

Local first responders will staff the camp and provide children with opportunities to learn about firefighting and emergency services. The camp will feature different stations and utilize varied locations, including the Lancaster County Public Safety Training Center. A different slate of activities is offered each year.

During camp, each cadet will be issued personal protective equipment to assist in completing the skills stations safely, along with a camp uniform T-shirt. Food and hydration options will be readily available. At the conclusion of camp, families will be invited to see demonstrations of the skills stations and attend a small awards ceremony and a cookout.

Space is limited. There is a cost to attend, and scholarships are available. For more details and registration, visit http://www.lafayettefire.com/cadetcamp. For further details, contact cadetcamp@lafayettefire.com.
