to sit inside the cab of the fire truck, and tour the aerial lad- der bucket once it was back on the ground.
First grader Zoie Hofer said her favorite part of the Reedley Fire visit was also the aerial ladder. "It was cool," she said. "But I would be scared to be way at the top."
Zoie's friend, Gracie Tor-

"I got to sit in the seats, it was cool," said Gracie. "I got to take a picture with my friends in front. The fire truck sprays water when there's a fire, and you climb up the ladder when you have to help put a fire out
on a tall building."
Lopez and his crew said
they have been out to four schools this year. "Throughout the year if schools want us to come out they make contact and talk to our secretary. She can schedule us to come out," he said. He said they'll be giv- en a date and time to whom- ever is available and they will

make the trip.
"A lot of us have full time
jobs, so we work full time and work part time, so it's when- ever guys can be available."
Several of the fire crew members were dispatched to a call during the presentation. The remaining crew members stayed behind and answered questions from students.
