Nick Jones, Vienna Community Center Supervisor: “My New Year’s resolution is very simple: just to make sure I’m healthy, my family’s healthy and family is taken care of.”
Jaimie Gillespie, Volunteer EMT at the Vienna Volunteer Fire Department: “To spend more time with family and good friends and to pass the CPAT and get into fire school.” (The CPAT is the Candidate Physical Ability Test to assess if one is capable of the physical tasks required for being a firefighter.)
Ahmed Harris, Firefighter at the Vienna Volunteer Fire Department: “Improving my skills with this job – training harder in regards to improving my skills.”
Grace Windheim, Vienna resident: “It’s to do 20 unassisted pull-ups. There’s a pull-up bar outside my apartment, so I’ll keep practicing on that. I try to do it every day as long as I can, but usually I don’t do it. So I’m going to try to do it every day.”
