Annual Drill 2025
2025-08-23 08:00 - 15:00 | CA
The Burbank Fire Corps Program (BFCP) will be conducting our Annual Drill to assess our team’s operational readiness. This exercise provides a critical opportunity for volunteers to practice and refine their skills in a simulated emergency scenario, ensuring our preparedness for real-world situations.
This drill will incorporate multiple missions, allowing volunteers to engage in various roles and responsibilities, leveraging as many BFCP core capabilities as possible. The training will focus on team coordination, communication, and response operations to evaluate overall effectiveness and readiness.
Participation:

Open to all registered BFCP volunteers
Volunteers will receive deployment instructions prior to the exercise
This drill will simulate realistic emergency conditions, requiring volunteers to operate as they would in an actual activation

This is a key training event for all BFCP volunteers and plays a vital role in maintaining our operational capabilities. Your participation is highly encouraged to help strengthen our team’s effectiveness and preparedness.

Work Day at the FTC
2026-01-10 08:00 - 17:00 | Burbank Fire Training Center, 1845 N Ontario St, Burbank, CA, 91505, United States
Apologies for the late notice, but we’re hosting a work day at the Fire Training Center (FTC) this Saturday from 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM, and we’d love to have your help!
We’ll be working on clearing out one of the trailers as we prepare to operationalize it into what will become an EOC on Wheels. This will be a mobile, ready-to-deploy resource for future operations and events—and it’s one of several exciting initiatives you’ll be hearing more about at this month’s meeting.
If you’re available and looking for a productive way to spend your Saturday, come join us, lend a hand, and help move this project forward. Many hands make light work—and this is a great chance to make a tangible impact on our operational readiness.
