DRY HYDRANT TESTING
Much of fire protection involves preparation. You may see
fire department members periodically testing "dry hydrants."
These are the white plastic pipes nearby ponds in town,
and they help provide water to fire apparatus when needed.
When you see us on the road testing,
slow down and give us a wave!
