FLMFD helped usher in the new school year for FLM Elementary students the week of August 24. Bedecked with “slow down, school’s in session” banners, Rescue 73 and Engine 72 were roadside Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at the school alerting drivers that the new school year was underway. A banner was also hung in the school cafeteria letting students know that the fire department welcomed them back. Local law enforcement officers dropped by to express their gratitude to the department for lending a hand.
Thanks to all members who took the time to participate and special thanks to Assistant Chief Doug Zalesky, Bruce Kowalski and Dennis Portlance for making it happen! This exemplifies the sort of community activities that set us apart and give the department excellent visibility. Good job!
