New Academy graduates
After months of high-intensity training, Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Academy 51 recruits graduated Feb. 23. The 24 probationary firefighters will each ride as the fourth person of an engine company until the middle of March, when they will be assigned to their own stations.

This influx of new firefighters will allow the district to staff Lafayette Fire Station 16 with three engine companies early next year.
