2010 Fire Station Symposium
Mark your calendars and put these tandem events in your budget now!

October 31: One-day focused on Training Facilities
Gaston College Regional Fire and Emergency Services Training Center
(transportation provided to and from the Omni Charlotte Hotel)

November 1, 2 and 3: 2-1/2 half days focused on Fire Stations
Omni Charlotte Hotel, 123 E. Trade St. Charlotte, NC 28202


Did you know that the cost of operating and maintaining a fire station over its lifespan far exceeds the initial cost of the station?
The symposium will provide many ways through design and renovation that you can reduce the cost of operating a fire station, whether it is new or existing. It will cover other topics you need to be aware of before undertaking the construction of a new station or the renovation of an exiting one.

29 of the leading experts on fire stations will be on hand to offer 26 topic sessions applicable to fire training facilities and fire stations!
In addition there will be time for you to have one-on-one sessions with manufacturer’s reps and architects about products and services for your next facility.

What makes the F.I.E.R.O. Fire Station Symposium the best choice?

  • It’s the original station design symposium. It was developed by fire service personnel and is run by fire service personnel.

  • Our speakers include many fire service personnel. They know what works and what doesn’t.

  • Attendees get a CD of handouts from the presentations to take home and use for future reference.

  • Our “Station Design” awards program is judged by six fire service personnel with degrees in architecture.

  • Our judges for the “Station Design” awards program come from all across the country.

  • We offer a wider array of topics--something for first-timers as well as something for returning attendees.

  • We offer many door prizes from our exhibitors.

  • F.I.E.R.O. is a non-profit fire service agency. All money generated from the symposium goes into next year’s symposium.

Remember: Building and maintaining Fire stations and training facilities are major expenditures for any community. Be a responsible caretaker of the funds you are provided by making sure you have all the information to make the best long-term decisions for your community.
