Four of us volunteered to show a group of kids and their parents through the Fire Hall today. The kids were aged younger then 3 up to 12 years old. The tour took only an hour of our time, but I'm sure those kids on the truck, hearing the siren and see the lights come on on the truck, will remember this all their lives. I love my job! Kids grinning ear to ear, excited to sit in the driver's seat is just an example of what a fun I have here at the Hall.

The group listening to one of the Captains explaining the function of a pumper truck.

Here the group is seeing what's being held behind closed doors of our Rescue truck.

Kids getting a taste of how loud the siren is and seeing the lights going on the truck. You can see one plugging her ears. It's pretty loud out side, and here we are in the hall :)

    1. Yes, that was pretty awesome. I haven't forgotten either.
