start spreading the word miles city!!

I attended and enjoyed the stations and learned a lot about water safety, life jackets, swimming for safety, water rescue, and hypothermia. Great way to spend the morning. Thanks to all the groups,people, and Miles City Firefighters for the presentations. Hope that there will be more in the future.

The Gazette ran the press release in today's paper. Not very useful that, unless you have a time machine.
