Why do we attend the Missouri State Fair? What things do we do at the Missouri State Fair? Fair members said they attend the fair for the friends they make, the food, and to be a part of something great. It’s an experience you cannot have anywhere else in the nation. The Missouri State Fair Fire Department is the only 11 day functioning EMS and fire department in the nation. It is made up of firefighters and EMS personnel from all parts of Missouri. Making friends from all parts of Missouri makes going to the fair a great experience! Let’s not forget the food, while at the fair we are fed three meals a day and it is true home cooking. August will be here before we know it and the State Fair EMS team is ready to make this year great again. Battalion Chief for EMS will be Jacob Wade, Captain of Operations will be Vern Cash, Captain of Training for EMS will be Kegan Wilson, and Carissa Thompson will be First Aid Coordinator.
Our team is working to bring new education opportunities in hopes that everyone will leave the fair knowing they have served a great service, earned lots of CEU’s, and most of all had fun while doing so. EMS this year will staff five units and will be increasing the capabilities of our ALS care. First aid will be open daily for walk in basic first aid. Come join our team and have one of the best experiences in Missouri. Be a part of something that is only offered in Sedalia, MO. The fair offers networking with volunteer and career EMS personal. You will learn new skills to bring back to your home departments and make forever friends while doing it. Do you know someone who may want to be part of this experience? Come join the State Fair Fire Department family.
Don’t forget about the FFAM Convention April 12-14, this would be a great opportunity to learn more about the fair and tour the fairgrounds.
