Jolene Michano and Cst. Palmer along with Pic River Volunteer Fire Department and Marathon EMS hosted a First Responders Day with the youth from day camp. The youth were shown live demonstrations from the various responders and provided with swag. A BBQ was also held for those in attendance. This opportunity gave the youth an opportunity to meet various responders and learn about their jobs in a calming environment and not just when needed.
