SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The 2nd annual Public Safety Appreciation Day was held on Thursday, September 7, and community members came out to say "thank you" to personnel from several agencies.
The City of South Lake Tahoe hosted the event which had live music, free BBQ and ice cream and a thank-you card making station.
Kids were able climb on board fire trucks, meet the new Search & Rescue puppy and get to know those who protect them on a daily basis.
Agencies invited were:
Calfire
· California Highway Patrol
· Nevada Highway Patrol
· Douglas County Sheriff's Office
· El Dorado County Sheriff's Office (including STAR and Search & Rescue)
· El Dorado County Probation
· Fallen Leaf Lake Fire Department
· FBI (South Lake Tahoe Division)
· Lake Valley Fire District
· South Lake Tahoe Fire Rescue
· South Lake Tahoe Police Department
· Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District
· US Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit
A big hit with the younger crowd was the display of fire trucks. "That was the most awesome vehicle festival ever," said four-year-old Gavin Damiano (pictured above.
