It’s going to be a little warm this week!🔥☀️
If you would like to donate a case of water or sports drink to the firefighters, you can always drop it off at the station by the front door, or on Wednesday evening training nights. The hydration assistance is always appreciated!💦
Not local- that’s ok- your local fire company would appreciate it also!🚒🧑‍🚒
