Baily Team wins at 1997 NMRA Competition!
Consol PA Coal Company's Bailey Team of Grayville, PA won first place in the mine rescue competition at the 1997 National Mine Rescue, First Aid, EMT and Bench Contest which was held Sept. 16-18 at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center in Louisville, Ky.
The Baily team competed against fifty other mine rescue teams to test their knowledge and skills to solve a hypothetical rescue problem.
Mine rescue contests are designed to sharpen the skills and to test the knowledge of mine rescue teams. This training is conducted to prepare rescue teams who may one day be called upon to rescue miners that are involved in a real mine emergency.
A mine rescue team is made up of six members who must solve a hypothetical rescue problem while being timed and observed by judges, the teams must follow rules during the rescue contest.
