The youth group would like to extend a huge thank you to Mel Trot and the Falmouth Fire Rescue Department for showing us around the firehouse last Sunday. Youth and parents alike enjoyed seeing all the engines, the ambulance, search and rescue vehicles and boats.
We had the chance to climb into a fire engine and got to pretend to be scuba divers in the scuba bus. We saw the living spaces and office spaces of the department and heard all about the day to day operations
Officer Trot also told us stories from his career and some of the ways that he helps to educate folks about fire prevention. He even gave us carabiners and pencils to take home to remind us of our tour.
At the end of our tour, almost on queue, a call came into the station and we got to see the firemen spring into action and go to the rescue. We want to thank all the folks at FFRD for all they do to keep us safe!
