EIU Tower Training
This local rescue team is preparing for fire safety.
The Charleston fire department is holding a series of simulations to train their crew on how to handle a high rise fire emergency.
And the best place to do it,a tall building on Eastern Illinois University's campus.
Fire fighters say around central Illinois high rise building fires are un-common but that doesn't mean they don't plan for an emergency in case one happens high in the sky.
This is the second high rise fire training the Charleston Fire Department is performing.
In addition to high rise fire training the department also conducts training in areas that include house fires emergency responses and dive training which is schedule for next week.
