Wichita Fire Department hosts kids summer camp

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – Wichita firefighters took the time to teach kids about being first responders, letting them spend a day in their boots.

On Friday, the Wichita Fire Department hosted a summer camp, giving kids a personal perspective on the life of a firefighter. They learned how to pull a hose, spray water, and force their way into a building.

“We want to get out in the community and do fun things, great things with the kids. We want to share what we do with them. We want to have fun with them and let them know if they ever need us that we are going to be there for them,” said WFD Captain Larry Inlow.

The fire department wants to make the summer camp an annual event.
