We kicked off the month of May by hosting an MPO class this past Sunday morning as members learned how to pump Engine 141 & Rescue 13. The Vista Fire Department is in the process of developing new drivers for both Engine 141 & Rescue 13 as part of our new Driver/MPO initiative, so it's very important for each Firefighter to learn how to properly pump both of our Engines. As part of that initiative we hold an MPO class the first two Sunday's of every month following our weekly Sunday Breakfast for all our members.
