Second Grader Wins Ride To School On Fire Truck

September 2, 2016

Second grader Gavin Bramblett and his brother Aiden got the ride of a lifetime from their home to Jim Allen Elementary School Thursday morning — on an Escambia Fire Rescue ladder truck.

Gavin won the ride to school on a fire truck during the West Florida Library’s Summer Reading Club by reading more than 50 hours during the summer.

    Way cool!! Tremendous idea, thanks to all involved. It’s the smallest things at times that make the most impact.

    What a shocking surprise to receive a gift like a morning with the Fire Crew and their truck and then the ride to school. An amazing idea and gift. I would imagine that would be something that would inspire kids to read even more. Good job the Molino Library did this summer.
