Congratulations Recruit Firefighter Andrew Cary and the rest of his class for passing the CPAT test. Thank you to Utica Fire for hosting the event

What is the CPAT?

The CPAT test is a nationally used test,
The CPAT is a pass/fail timed test (10 minutes 20 seconds) which consists of eight separate events (stair climb, hose drag, equipment carry, ladder raise and extension, forcible entry, search, rescue, and ceiling breach and pull). The test is a sequence of events that requires the candidate to progress along a predetermined path from event to event in a continuous manner. In these events the candidate wears a 50 pound vest to simulate the weight of self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), and the firefighter protective clothing. An additional 25 pounds, using two 12.5 pound weights that simulate a high-rise pack (hose bundle), is added for the stair climb event. The events are placed in a sequence that best simulates their use in a fire scene while allowing an 85 foot walk between events. To ensure the highest level of safety and to prevent candidate exhaustion, no running is allowed between events.

After 20 years of dedicated service to the town of Greece and the Ridge Road Fire District, today is Firefighter David Cantabene’s final shift as he retires. David has been a lifelong resident of Greece, from a Greece Central School graduate to raising his family here, his commitment to the community has been steadfast throughout the years.
David has been a tremendous asset throughout the years and his experience and professionalism will be missed throughout the firehouse. Good luck on your next adventure!
