Engine 1/2 had a great time at the Western Welcome Week Parade in Littleton on August 15th! 🚒❤️

There were lots of cheers, smiles, and applause as Engine 1/2 cruised down through the crowds lining Littleton Boulevard and Main Street. It was awesome seeing the community come out to celebrate and show their support.

Everybody loves Engine 1/2! 🚒👏❤️

Thank you to SMSF Board Member Mark for always looking after Engine 1/2!
