St. Johnsbury Fire House Rock

After much tossing back and forth between slideshow topics, the group has come to the conclusion that a slideshow about the St. Johnsbury fire house will rock.(Previous topics include LARP weapon making, LARP fighting and the rules of LARPing, why people joined LARP.)

The original idea was to have a 'day in the life' kind of slideshow featuring one of the firefighters. After getting the recording and photo part done I think our slideshow will be less of 'day in the life' and more of 'rookie firefighter walk through of the fire house'.

A young fireman took Marc and I on a tour of the fire house and explained the daily goings on of a fireman. From how long it takes to get ready for a emergency call to the background training they need to become a firefighter.

Target audience for the slideshow would optimistically be everyone from the town of St. Johnsbury, realistically, just the class. I hope that St. Johnsbury Academy students might stumble upon this blog if they are doing a Capstone project related to the fire department. (When I called to schedule an appointment to tour the fire house the fire chief asked if I was working on a Capstone project.)


The group duties have been divided up to share the work load.
