Fire Apparatus Parade and Appreciation Day attendees sit in the grass in front of fire truck

Illinois Fire Service! We invite and encourage you to participate in the Camp I Am Me Summer Camp Fire Apparatus Parade, a special activity supported by Contech. The parade brings together over 50 fire service vehicles from across the state to celebrate and honor the resilience of these young campers.

Show your support by joining this camper-favorite activity, where trucks, engines, and command vehicles can display their lights and sirens as they navigate the campground. Your participation will not only bring joy and excitement to the campers but also serve as a meaningful way to show your dedication to their well-being and recovery.
