First Responder Training Center at Geauga Lake

I founded and run the First Responder Training Center at Geauga Lake.  It was established to provide local First Responders a secure and safe environment for training.  What was once Wildwater Kingdom, SeaWorld and Geauga Lake is now available for SWAT, police, fire, K9, search and rescue, and drone training.  A large array of buildings and areas have been dedicated for training.  Use of the site is free of charge to all governmental entities and approved non-profit organizations.

I currently have a Boy Scout working on his Eagle Scout badge creating fire department training props.  He will be constructing a VES Window Prop, a Denver Drill prop and an entrapment prop.  He is working with a number of the local fire departments to determine their wants and needs.

I am always looking for new ideas for training props and scenarios. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments.

Thank you,

    Hi Leigh, Chris Hunt here. I checked out your Facebook page, lots of puppies there! How very cute!

    However, I'm sad to see a sign there saying the center has closed. It seems it was a great place for training.

    Good luck out there!
