Red Card

by Bonnie

Apr 2, 2008

Hey there. I just got into Richland this morning. I know the season is coming up. I let my red card lapse last year and am looking for either the class or a refresher. I don't want to go back to Vancouver if I don't have to. Do any of you know when and where a class may be offered in the area? Thanks!

    We are just starting our refresher, and I believe US Fish & Wildlife is as well. It shouldnt be too difficult to sit through 16 hours of safety and basic wildland here in the Tri-City area. The hard part is the medical certification or "pack test" and being affiliated with an agency locally that will actually certify your Red Card. Unless your still rostered at Washugal FD and they will sign it, that might be the only snag! i will see if i can find a calendar.
