Rotary Club of Harrisburg Presents Houston Fire Station 20 with Custom BBQ Grill

The Rotary Club of Harrisburg presented Houston Fire Station 20 with a new, custom made 8-foot trailer-mounted BBQ pit with smoker and firebox. The gift was in appreciation for the service from the firefighters at Station 20 who have dedicated their lives to the protection of life and property, especially for residents and businesses in East End Houston. The smoker was built and created by VICO Manufacturing & S&H Manufacturing, two of Rotary Club of Harrisburg’s members. Details of the smoker combine personalizations for HFD Station 20 and tributes to the first responders who gave the ultimate sacrifice on September 11, 2001.
