Firefighters from across the country will converge on Seminole County, Florida April 1-4 at Seminole State in Sanford for the inaugural All American Challenge and Training Camp, a preseason event in the Firefighter Challenge Championship Series. Deemed by ESPN as “the toughest two minutes in sports,” the Firefighter Challenge tests the strength, endurance and technical skills required in real-life emergency response.

The course simulates real-world firefighting demands, including:
• climbing a five-story tower
• hose hoists
• forcible entry
• hose drags
• rescuing a 165-pound mannequin

Seminole County is hosting and the Seminole County Fire Department has nearly 30 personnel participating in the events. One of the teams is made of our Fire Chief, Deputy Chief, Shift Commander, Assistant Chief of Special Ops and Assistant Chief of EMS. If you’d like any other information or angles, I’ll be happy to provide.

Event is free for all spectators.
