A FDNY participant said, “It was amazing, best day of the year. We tried on gear, slid down poles and learned things about the fire truck”. Kaylee, a CBS employee said, “It was a real treat having them here for the day and we were honored to host the group”.

Thanks to our corporate hosts and volunteer chaperones for making the day another success!
