Providence Fire Chief Kenyon and members of the department spent a joyful day at the Davey Lopes summer camp, sharing stories with the children and giving them an up-close look at a fire truck in action. The visit was filled with laughter, learning, and inspiration, as firefighters connected with the campers and encouraged them to dream big. The department is proud to invest time in the community and help light the path for tomorrow’s leaders.
