One of Snohomish County Fire District 7’s newest firefighters, Ryan Stupey, graduated from the Washington State Patrol Fire Training Academy on July 21.

Stupey graduated with accreditation and certification of Firefighter I and Hazardous Material Operations.

Stupey, a Firefighter and EMT, gained firefighting experience as a volunteer for District 7 before being hired full-time. He was one of five firefighters who began working full-time for the district in April. The five probationary firefighters, including Stupey, Filmore Norris, Jarrod Spence, Steve Kuhlman, and Tobin Beard, are currently in a field training program at the fire district. At the end of one year, the firefighters will be eligible to graduate from probation.

Fire District 7 serves the city of Mill Creek and the neighborhoods of Cathcart, Clearview, Thrashers Corner, Maltby, Echo Lake and Gold Creek.
