CALAMITYVILLE

For almost 90 years, the 53-acre site at 506 East Xenia Drive in Fairborn, Ohio, produced cement, an ingredient critical to building infrastructure in the region. Today, Calamityville is a training, testing, and research venue where military and civilian emergency first responders hone their skills while building relationships. The proximity to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Wright State University, and hospitals in the Greater Dayton region make the old cement plant an ideal location for a versatile training facility. These stakeholders help transform emergency response training to better prepare first responders for disasters and provide an opportunity to work cooperatively on-scene.
