MORAINE — The former Relax Inn in Moraine will soon be a training site for firefighters.

Winsupply Inc. announced Thursday that it purchased the hotel located at 3333 S. Dixie Drive.

“While the company’s newest property will no longer function as a hotel, it will immediately begin serving the community by providing a training site for the Moraine Fire Department,” a spokesperson for the company said.

The training will take place in the following areas:

  • Wall breaching (cutting a window into a doorway)
  • Interior wall breaching into adjoining spaces
  • Roof ventilation practice
  • Disaster response wall marking training (painting the large ‘X’ on the exterior with code markings for other first responders)
  • Non-destructive forced entry (drilling out locks, etc.)
  • Hose deployment training

“We’ve always appreciated our ongoing partnership with the city of Moraine,” said Bill Tolliver, Vice President of the Wholesalers Property Company, LLC and Assistant Corporate Council for Winsupply. “Winsupply is excited to provide a space where our local heroes can enhance their knowledge, capabilities and skills.”
