With summer heat on the rise, the Hopkinsville Fire/EMS Department and Hopkinsville Parks and Recreation Department are teaming up again to help the community cool down.
The 2nd Annual Hoptown Hose Down partnership, beginning Tuesday, June 1st, will have an HFD-provided pumper truck traveling to six different parks from 1:30-2:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays during June to safely spray down attendees with a water hose and nozzle throughout Hopkinsville.
Use of the extra truck and personnel from the Fire Department will not take away from any regular services provided or emergencies responded to by HFD/EMS. Parks employees on site will be facilitating the mobile spray parks.
