Fire Camp

Our nephew Blake was visiting us this past week because he attended Sac Metro's Fire Camp for kids. Jon was able to be Blake's group counselor along with Jeremy Crawford.The last day of fire camp they had a BBQ for the families and the kids showed off the skills they learned throughout the week.There was a helicopter demonstration: it circled multiple times, dropped water and lowered a fireman down to the ground from the hoovering helicopter. That was Brody's favorite part. The kids also had 3 competitions.

1.Bucket Brigade2. Water Hockey3. Connect the Hose relay (not pictured)

Rylee was able to cheer the kids on from close up on Jon's shoulders. She was so excited because the kids voted to let her have their group flag they had made. They called themselves the "Super Duper Hecka Tight Armadillos" Here is Rylee and Brody paying close attention to the awards ceremony.Great job Blake! It was a fun visit!
