Fire fighters' ice cream social


On Thursday, August 13 the community gathered at Fire Station #4 for a fun evening of root beer floats, games, playing on fire trucks and meeting the local firefighters. This annual event raises dollars to help support the efforts of the volunteer fire departments!



Twin brothers tried on firemen's uniforms while another boy tried shooting water at a practice "on fire" house with the fire hose.

les enfants ont du bien s'amuser et puis cela montre l'importance des pompiers
the children own property have a good time. And then it shows the importance of the firefighters

Many fires to extinguish in your Principality, Sire von Eagan? Ice cream is a novel way to fight it.

I gotta give a lot of credit to volunteer firemen! Their job is so important and I don't think they get sufficient recognition. Hope you raised big bucks!

Such cuties!
Sounds like a great day for all. Good community relations and fundraising too — I like that. I don't think we've ever had anything like this with our fire department.
