Photos & Video ~ Poletop rescue competition in the Plaza

After rumors then figuring out just what the heck a large wooden pole was doing in the Plaza downtown, I went down yesterday to see the main event. The poletop rescue competition was impressive stuff. Teams from all over the state competed and were down to the final four. I saw Seattle's utility team take to the pole with a crowd of state safety conference attendees and nearly a half dozen judges watching their every move. You can see their run wherein they rescue a dummy, lower it down, then do CPR while awaiting full medical response. Check it out:


Anyone find out which team took the competition?

Coffee & Rhetoric live online tonight @ 7pm

That's right. If you're not a fan or parking downtown or just can't get away from home but still want to see what Coffee & Rhetoric is all about, have no fear! FeedTacoma has teamed up with the C&R folks to bring tonight's discussion about the return of First Night to you live online. Tune in over at FeedTacoma at 7pm tonight and talk it up there in the forum. If any good questions show up I'll try and pose them to the folks live.
