I went to Indianapolis late last week for a meeting with the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation about the annual stair climb that we do. We are about to take it across the nation….more on that another time. We met in Indy because everyone was already there for the annual FDIC conference – the largest firefighter conference in the nation. Each year it’s held in Indy (I have been twice before) so they have quite the set-up since it can be used year-to-year. I had about a hour to browse the exhibits before the meeting and was able to visit the exhibit annex at Lucas Oil Field (new home of the Colts) as well as all of the exhibits at the convention center. The stadium is huge, and looks like a gigantic old-school fieldhouse. Needless to say, it’s a different venue for fire trucks than you normally see.
