On Tuesday, we held our first-ever Safety Day at the MCBDD! 🚒🚑🚓 This educational experience gave the people we serve an opportunity to meet local first responders, learn about safety, and get an up-close look at some of the vehicles they may encounter in an emergency. Participants were able to explore a fire truck, ambulance, SWAT vehicle, and police car while learning more about the important roles our first responders play in keeping our community safe. A huge thank you to all of the first responders and organizations who joined us! We appreciate your time, partnership, and commitment to making safety education accessible and meaningful for everyone. 💙 Medina County Sheriff's Office, Ohio Medina County Park District Granger Township Firefighters Association Alternative Paths, Inc.
