This from Andy Hilk:
On my days off I teach a fire science class to high school students that is run through the Technology Center of DuPage (TCD). TCD is a Career and Technical Education (CTE) High School for juniors and seniors attending high school in DuPage County and has about 1,100 students enrolled that attend either a morning or afternoon session. Programs of study include Fire Science/EMT, Criminal Justice, Auto Body, Construction, and many more.This past Saturday, TCD, which is on Swift Road in Addison, had our annual expo and the students participated in a mock crash scenario in the parking lot assisted by the Addison FPD. Last year the Wood Dale FPD donated two vehicles to TCD; a 1980’s vintage Pierce Dash which was x-Engine 68 I believe, and a Ford/Wheeled Coach ambulance. The rigs have now been lettered as TCD rigs with an acknowledgement to Wood Dale.
