The Sharps Chapel Fire Explorers and advisors traveled to Warren County, NC for an annual Explorer Competition. The department has been going to this event for three years. Warren County fire puts on an excellent competition and shows great hospitality and sportsmanship. The explorers look forward to these competitions every year. Thanks Warren County for hosting the competition and events and welcoming us to your community.

The events scheduled for the day was as follows: Quick Dress, Stretcher Bearer Event, Water Tug-of-War, Hose Roll Event, Water Thief Event, and Written and Verbal Knowledge based Events.  The day was a bit cool and drizzled a little of rain but that did not stop the Explorers from competing and having a good time with the other brothers and sisters from other departments. Explorer Post #510 brought home three third place awards.

3rd place in the Stretcher Bearer Event, 3rd place in the Hose Roll Event, and 3rd place in Verbal Knowledge.
