Fourth of July Weekend is just around the corner and that means renewed warnings about the danger of illegal fireworks.They learned to use ladders, axes and chainsaws.
Camper Isabele Neira said she was most excited to be"working with a chainsaw, I think that would be really fun, but mostly learning about fire safety and how to help other people.""I'm still really inspired by his work to just go into this field," she said."I feel like there are a lot of things I am interested in, but it is definitely an option to me," McCann said."I've always [had it] in the back of my head.
