Canaveral Donates Equipment to Eastern Florida’s Fire Training Center
The Canaveral Port Authority has turned over the ceremonial keys to “Truck 52,” an aerial fire apparatus formerly operated by Canaveral Fire Rescue, to Eastern Florida State College (EFSC) for use in the school’s Fire Training Center.
The donation was formally recognized at a ceremony in Port Canaveral, where Port Canaveral CEO Captain John Murray and Canaveral Fire Rescue Deputy Chief Jeff Crawley presented a ceremonial key to the College’s Vice President for External Affairs, Jack Parker.
“We are proud to donate this valuable equipment to support Eastern Florida’s education and training program,” said Captain Murray. “Truck 52 served our port community well, and it will continue to be of service in preparing the next generation of firefighters and first responders for their vitally important careers.”
