Crested Butte Fire Protection District is proud of Lilian Voegeli!
A 17-year-old Explorer with CBFPD for two years, Lilian just completed Camp Ember with West Metro/Arvada Fire, a 3-day hands-on firefighting program for girls ages 16–18. She trained on bunker gear and SCBA/air pack, search & rescue, forcible entry, bail in/bail out, hose/nozzle advancement, vehicle extrication, ladder/window rescue, class B live fire and a CPAT test.
Out of about 50 applicants, 14 were selected. We’re especially proud of Lilian for earning her spot and putting in the work!
Our Explorer Program, open to youth ages 14–18, has been running since 2012. Its mission is to engage students and introduce them to professional fields of fire, EMS, and law enforcement.
