Queen Creek fire invites residents to special ceremony

The Queen Creek Fire & Medical Department is asking residents to help it welcome its new fire engine.

Traditionally, fire departments hold an engine push ceremony when a new truck is added to a station.

Keeping with tradition, QCFMD will be holding a ceremony to celebrate its new engine 413.

Community members are invited to help push the new engine into the station and they will get to meet local firefighters and enjoy coffee, juice and donuts.

The ceremony runs from 9 to 9:30 a.m., Saturday, Feb. 7 at Fire Station 3, 19159 E. Queen Creek Road.

Overflow parking will be available at Song of Life Church, 20164 S. Sossaman Road, on the northwest corner of Queen Creek and Sossaman roads.
