Educational opportunity
Hanover Pa.
March 14, 2012
The Engine crew went to Hanover for the 5th year in a row to provide fire prevention materials and help educate the young students at the preschool learning center. We displayed our TOG and portable equipment and gave them safety and fire prevention tips for their homes and family, including pop up displays and coloring books. After the classroom presentation we took the kids on a tour of the Engine and showed them how the equipment worked. Thanks again to the preschool for the invite, this is one the events we look forward to each year.
