A Show of community was a special highlight.  The Jeep, Bronco, Car and truck show, where polished chrome and revving engines symbolized the strength and readiness of those who rush towards danger to keep us safe. It was a display of power, not just of the vehicles, but of the solidarity that fuels our community’s engine.
