Following our meeting, Join us for a special presentation of Pole Top Rescue (weather permitting) Each year, SYEMC lineman must perform in a scenario that finds a fellow worker unconscious atop a utility pole. The lineman, dressed in full climbing gear, must radio for help, climb 20 feet up a utility pole, rig a rope, lower a 105-pound mannequin and begin CPR. Most SYEMC lineman can complete this rigorous series of tasks in around two minutes. All SYEMC line workers must execute this scenario in less than five minutes to maintain their certification to work on co-op lines.
