🚓🚒 Another Guns N’ Hoses is in the books! 🥎💚

What an incredible day bringing our community together for some friendly competition, connection, and an important cause—supporting the mental health and well-being of our first responders.

A huge THANK YOU to the Erie Police Department and Erie Fire Department for taking the field, having some fun, and helping us continue the conversation around mental health. First responders show up for our community every day, and events like Guns N’ Hoses remind us how important it is that we show up for them, too. 💙❤️

We are especially grateful to our sponsor, Erie County Gaming Revenue Authority (ECGRA), for supporting this event and helping make opportunities like this possible for our community. 💚

Thank you as well to our community partners, resource vendors, volunteers, and everyone who joined us at UPMC Park. Your support helps us break down stigma, connect people with resources, and remind our community that no one has to face mental health challenges alone. And to MKleck Photography for capturing the day!

Thank you for making Guns N’ Hoses another memorable day for our community! 🥎
