FFCO Firefighters Keep Students “Cool”

Whew!  It sure was a hot day on Thursday, July 17th for the students of the School District of Springfield Township’s Extended School Year Program.

Fortunately for them, Flourtown Fire Company firefighters Greg Fasold & Gene Rahill, and Engineer Rich Brown stopped-by to help cool things off.

Is there a better way to keep cool on a hot day than making it rain with 1,750gpm?  We don’t think so, and it would seem like the students agreed!
