Lesley Prather was Superwoman! She excelled as a firefighter in a profession that historically has been dominated by men. We have partnered with the Louisville Fire Department to host our third annual four day "Lesley Prather Empowerment Camp" at the Louisville Fire Training Academy. The camp participants will consist of middle school aged girls (10-14 years old) from the Louisville area. The participants will be exposed to the numerous careers that exist within and outside of the fire and fire service profession, will be trained on life saving techniques, will experience physical training and more. Led by female instructors who have or currently works in the fire service profession, these girls will be exposed to a World they may have thought never existed before. Lesley never compared herself to "the girls," she wanted to beat everyone at everything. We hope that through this exposure, these girls will gain confidence, become CPR certified and maybe even one day start a career in the fire service profession.
