Victorville Connect - April 4, 2024 |
|
|
It’s been five years since Victorville Fire was reactivated and it’s time to celebrate!
Join us for a Five Years of Reactivation Celebration, April 11 at 4 p.m. at Fire Station 311, 16200 Desert Knoll Drive. During this free event, we will also push into service three new Type 1 Engines benefiting the Victorville community. The "push-in" is a time-honored tradition that fire department's use to mark the addition of new apparatus to their fleet.
Victorville Fire's three, new Type 1 Engines are part of the City of Victorville's commitment to expanding public safety for our growing community.
We hope to see you there!
