Job Corps opens advanced firefighting center in Grant Co. :

MOSES LAKE — The Columbia Basin Job Corps Center officially cut the ribbon on its Advance Training Wildland Fire Fighting facility at 8331 Forbes Street in Moses Lake Wednesday.

“I’ve always talked about Columbia Basin (Job Corps Center) being the hidden gem,” said Center Director Mike Rios. “As we know, you can always get your foot in the door with the education, but it’s that specialized training that’s going to set you aside to take part in those opportunities out there. This is what our (students) are doing right now.”
