Your day will run smoothly with the help of key individuals: your wranglers.
Wranglers serve a critical role—as leaders for the participants and the link between your elected officials and the messages
to be communicated through Fire Ops 101. Wranglers need to know the key
talking points for each
scenario/stations well enough to reinforce them throughout the activities. They also need to know their group well enough to be aware of any special needs or concerns.
Wranglers function as an informal team-level safety officer. It is their role to work with the Incident Commander and the individual event coordinators to keep things running
and on time. This includes making sure the group finishes
each station at the correct time and moves to the rehab area. |
