Fire Department Field Trip

We went on a field trip to the fire department today. Each child received their own hat and sticker badge. They enjoyed seeing the entire fire station and the fire trucks. The tour was really nice and they really did a great job showing the kids all their gear and reminding them not to be scared of firefighters.

We learned the fire trucks are white because when the fire department started, they used white horses. To honor this heritage, they continue to have white trucks.
