This in person class is in Alsip and is on Domestic Programming. I have taken a few classes from ATG and they are well taught and the classroom material (books) are some of the best out there for the price. If interested, sign up Here
Hello everyone, The first meeting of the year on February 11, 2025 at the Warrenville Fire Station. The business meeting will start at 9am and training will commence immediately after. The training topic will be maintenance and care of Genesis Rescue Tools.
Lunch will be provided for members who are current with their dues. Persons who show up for training and want lunch will be required to pay $20.00 which will then be applied to their yearly dues.
We will also be having EVT Testing starting at 1pm for those that need to take a test or two. If you are only taking a test and are not a member of IFAMA, you do not have to pay the $20.00 fee( unless you are eating lunch with us). You must register through EVT
A sign up sheet has been created for those that are planning on attending.

Pictures from the 2024 IFAMA Conference
 
Here are some more pics from the conference.
Thank you to everyone that attended the conference this year! We are already working on the conference for 2025 so mark your calendars as busy the week of October 12 to 17, 2025.
A special thank you goes to Eric Hall and Rick Krueger for your time and dedication in making this years conference happen. It wasn't easy and we had some trying times but, in the words of Rocky Balboa, "We did it Adrian"!
A special thank you goes out to Jeff Bober who continuously takes time from his schedule to proctor the EVT tests. Without you we would not have multiple dates throughout the year at which we could take our tests.
And last, but certainly not least, thank you to Mike Smollen for being our president for the last 4 years. We thank you for your time and effort you put into IFAMA and leading us through the Covid years.
Congratulations to Ted Ellison on being elected the new President of IFAMA. Our Treasurer, who decided to retire, ran for reelection and was reelected, so congratulations to Dan Marcinkowsi who will be starting his 25th year as Treasurer for IFAMA.
 
Here are a few pictures from the 2024 conference.
