The town of Fort Mill hosted an all-day learning event at the Firehouse. Anthony Rosenthal, the great-grandson of the two RV Gypsies crawled through a tent and learned how to escape a fire.

Below: After Anthony emerged safely, Sparky the firedog congratulated him on a job well-done.


Then Anthony practiced putting out a fire.

Below: Lee and Karen Duquette watched firemen use the jaws of life to rescue a "person" in a crashed car. Flashback Note and photo: Lee Duquette was once a volunteer fireman and learned how to use the jaws of life, so Karen Duquette found a flashback photo of Lee learning to use the manual jaws of life and placed it on this page. That is Lee Duquette below in the yellow fire coat and helmet in 1979.
