According to one of the fire fighters visiting the library today, just before he explained his equipment and what it does:
"You guys aren't going to be afraid of firemen, are you? Because firemen are cool."
I got a massive kick out of that. Maybe you had to be there.
From a librarian standpoint, this was an awesome program to host. Fire fighting is an impressively popular subject so there was a lot of interest from the public. The presentation was very interesting and educational as well as entertaining. And the fire department agreed to come to the library for the low, low price of FREE! You can't beat that.
In the meantime, here are a few pictures from today's program:
