Capt. Fote, DO Hugo Matos, FF Trish Lilley, and FF Steve Morzella entertained a family at a birthday party in Belle Glade on Saturday, February 20th. The kids were shown the fire apparatus and then allowed to squirt some water from the booster line.

The kids loved it, which would have been good enough. But what topped the event was the adults were allowed, with assistance, to man the "trash line" on the engine. The adults were impressed with the crews and one of the attendees, a Pratt & Whitney employee, was even more impressed that we would take the time to do this for the community. The "fifty-ish" gentleman said that even though he watched fire trucks go by every day, he had never been that close to one.

Way to go E73B crew!
