Testimonial
"We walked through the building and interviewed a couple of the firefighters. All feedback was 100% positive, but one gentleman in particular just gushed about his new station. One example cited was the kitchen, and in 10+ years at the old station he couldn’t remember one time when the crew sat at the table and had dinner together. At the new station, meals together as a crew have become a new tradition, building morale and camaraderie. Building function aside, the atmosphere presented by the building has won them over."
