New Hanover Fire Co. hosted an event during fire prevention week. Community members had fun using fire extinguishers, seeing through a thermal imaging camera, cutting car pieces with hydraulic tools, learning about water rescue, climbing through windows, sliding down a fire pole, trying on gear, participating in a basket raffle, touring a Goodwill ambulance, checking out a police car, and taking rides on the firetrucks! Even with the rain, all had an enjoyable evening.
