Members of E946 helped save a lonesome duckling from the sewer on 165th avenue and 84th street. Although despite our efforts the duck passed later on most likely from sewer related reasons.

Kindergartners from PS146-Howard Beach took a nice walk on a beautiful day to come to the firehouse and see how we work as a team and how what we learned in school helps on a daily basis and they were able to most importantly have fun.
