Fred Auzenne, Chuck Carter & Bryan Ashbaugh,

I would like to express gratitude on behalf of my teammates and myself for your company’s generous support of our Firefighter Combat Challenge Team during the 2006 season. We can’t thank you enough for sticking with us after you acquired the company from Joe Godar earlier this spring. As the year went on it was obvious that your company was committed to whatever was in our best interest, you helped make our season not only possible, but a huge success.

Throughout the season we strived to do our best to represent your company, our department and community in a competitive and professional manner. We competed in five regional competitions around the country placing in the top three at all of them. Below I have listed our accomplishments for the year;

The effort on your part to have representatives on hand at World Challenge XV made all of the difference for us. I can’t tell you how much of a motivator that was to have Bryan Ashbaugh, Amy McFarlin-Bybee, Michelle Williams and Heidi Malano there to help support us. Numerous teams had banners flying from their tents with the names of their sponsors, but our sponsor was walking around handing out t-shirts and making an appearance, a financial contribution is one thing, taking the time to be there in person says a lot about you and your company!

In closing I want to thank you again for your financial contribution, team apparel, the great service and prices on our supplements, but most importantly the opportunity to meet some of the people behind your company. The 2006 season has been our best yet due largely to the support we received from SupplementstoGo.com. We are looking forward to the 2007 season and we hope to continue our relationship with you and your company in the future.

Sincerely,



Steven Schreck

The Scott Firefighter Combat Challenge
Event 1: Stair Climb
The first event is the high-rise pack carry. The 100' 1.75 inch Hi Combat hose load (42 lb.) may be carried in any manner to the top of the tower (equivalent to a five story building, 40 ft., 6 flights, 60 steps). The hose load must stay on the platform or the competitor is disqualified. The handrails may be used in climbing the tower. Steps may be taken in multiples on the way up, but every step must be contacted and handrails used when descending the tower.

Event 2: Hose Hoist
A 42 lb donut roll of Angus LDH hose and 5/8" kern-mantle rope are used for this event. The evolution is complete when the roll clears the railing of the top of the tower and is placed in the container. Proper placement is on or in the container, with no part of the donut touching the deck. The donut roll must stay on top; failure to do so results in disqualification. A fallen donut roll may not be retrieved.

Event 3: Forcible Entry
The Forcible entry evolution utilizes a Force Machine (a chopping simulator). Using a 9 lb. shot mallet provided, the competitor must drive the 165 lb. steel beam a horizontal distance of 5 ft. Pushing, raking or hooking the beam is not allowed; it must be struck only by the head of the mallet. Also, both hands must be above the tape mark on the handle (12 inches from the head end) at the point of impact. The hammer must be placed and stay on the designated 4’ x 4' matt or a 2 second penalty is assessed.

Event 4: Hose Advance
After advancing around the hydrants 140 ft., the competitor must pick up the nozzle end of the 1.75" charged Hi-Combat hose line (it must be grasped and pulled forward of the tape line 5 ft. from the tip) and drag it a distance of 75 ft. Once the nozzle crosses through the doors, the competitor opens the nozzle, hits the target with the water stream, shuts down the nozzle and places it on the pavement. If the nozzle is not shut before it is placed down, the competitor must go back and close it, or take a 5 sec. penalty.

Event 5: Victim Rescue
A 175 lb. Simulaids Rescue Randy mannequin must be dragged backwards a distance of 100 ft. Carrying the dummy is not permitted. The mannequin must not be grasped by its clothing or appendages. Time stops when the competitor and victim completely cross the finish line.
