343 Firefighters Died

Never Forget

Tonight we were invited down to Owings Mills (31) for dinner and games.  We had E412, E413, S414, SU418 and M415 all go down.  OM had an amazing spread including hamburgers, hotdogs and many other salads and chips.  After supper we played a game of kickball on the front apron.  We want to thank 31 for  the invite and we look forward to invite you up the road soon.
