Locals are invited to pick up applications at Fire & Rescue Headquarters, 500 N. Casino Center Blvd. Applications will be accepted until Jan. 9, 2004.
The Citizens Fire Academy is designed for citizens to learn more about the fire and emergency services that are available in the Las Vegas Valley.
Since it began in 2000, nearly 200 people have completed the weekly course.
Throughout the course, guest speakers will inform citizens about the many services available to the public along with speakers from the Trauma Intervention Program and American Red Cross Disaster Services.
Participants will meet once a week on either a Tuesday or Thursday evening from 6:30 p.m. until 9:30 p.m. Classes begin the week of Feb. 24 with graduation on May 4.
There is no cost for the academy.
