First responders for emergencies were paid homage on Wednesday
at Dallas County's "Be Ready Day" at the Memorial Stadium parking lot.
Hundreds of school children visited venues including this one
by the Alabama Forestry Commission. Commission employees
Brigitta Giles and Cedric Hudson were on hand to show a fire plow
and explain how it is used to control forest fires.
Almost 70 percent of Alabama is wooded.
