This past week, Capt. Matt, Capt. Mitch, firefighters Miquel and Brian from the Cal Fire Gordon Valley Station brought a fire engine and bulldozer to Peña Adobe. Campers especially enjoyed the big giant bulldozer!
Firefighters also showed the children equipment they use to fight fires including the gear they wear and what they carry with them each time they go out to fight a fire. Campers felt just how heavy 100 pounds of equipment can be! Then they let each camper take a turn as a future fire fighter “manning” the fire hose, which was great fun!
Capt Matt brought stickers, coloring books and plastic fire hats for everyone. What better time to teach our campers about fire safety with our upcoming Celebration of Independence this July 4th.
Each weekly camp is Monday - Friday from 6:30am-6:00pm or 9:00am-4:00pm. Register at www.cityofvacaville.com/civicrec.
