Cleanin' up at the Car Wash!


A big thanks to all the folks who came out to support The SHVFD this weekend at their Car Wash!
The guys got an early start and got plenty of customers. It seems the firefighters were able to keep mischief down to a minimal level.

Some jobs required that we break out the big guns, trucks get DIRTY out here, y'all!

As requested by many customers, some of our younger guys took their shirts off...

Meanwhile, The Auxilary held a bake sale and concession with lots of yummy treats!


Along with frito pies and lemonade, we had a variety of baked goods. Cookies, brownies, muffins and cupcakes galore and of course!
Aaaww, service with a smile, goes a long way. Made some Car Wash customers glad to stick around.

Treats for the Meet(ing)

This month it was Mrs Mac's and little E.C.'s turn to bring treats to the Department's business meeting. The treat? BROWNIES! Who doesn't love some tasty brownies?

Miss E.C. brought them in to the applause of hungry firefighters.

No biggie, right E.C.?

The brownies were super tasty and super simple. The secret to these yummy treats were some simple additions to doctor regular box brownies. We're gonna share them with you!

 Mrs. Mac's Business Brownies:
1 box of moist brownie mix for 9x13 pan (or two boxes of 8x8)
prepare the mix as per the box intructions
THEN ADD:
1/2 cup smashed banana
10 crushed oreo cookies (leave some chunks)
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
fold them into the batter and bake according to the box instructions

Enjoy with some ice cold milk...then cry about your thighs!
