At least 30 Grand Island youngsters will feel extra special on Friday, Oct. 13, when they win a fire truck model or a ride to school on a real fire truck, during drawings held at the Grand Island Fire Company Fire Prevention open house at Fire Headquarters, according to Chief Greg Butcher.

Program Coordinator Chris Soluri has arranged for the Jaws of Life vehicle extrication, a live fire demonstration, simulated firefighting hose practice, apparatus and equipment displays and more.

The Grand Island Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary will also provide a hot dog special at a minimal cost.

Don’t forget to set aside some time to attend between 5 and 8 p.m. on this important date, Friday, Oct. 13.
