FDIC Shows Support of FAMA Through Generous Contribution

At the Fire Department Instructors Conference (FDIC) International 2021, held August 2-7 in Indianapolis, Indiana, Eric Schlett, Sr. Vice President, Clarion Events, Inc. Fire & Rescue Group, presented the Fire Apparatus Manufacturers’ Association (FAMA) with a check for $11,500 on behalf of Clarion and FDIC. FDIC has been donating to FAMA since 2005 as a commitment of support to help foster FAMA’s governmental affairs and public relations efforts.

“In my 21 years at the helm of FDIC, I have never been more proud of my team. We were able to get back to leading live training to firefighters and highlighting product advancement and innovation on the show floor. We are fortunate to have FAMA companies as great partners to deliver a great experience to our firefighting community,” says Schlett.

FAMA Board President Jeromie Johnston adds, “Even in a period of unprecedented challenges in our industry, the team at Clarion, industry partners, and firefighters from around the world convened to make FDIC a success. The FAMA Board, GAC Committee, and member companies appreciate Clarion’s continued commitment and support toward our GAC activities and outreach to the broader industry.”
