THAT IT'S REALLY TAKEN OFF IN
SAN ANTONIO RIGHT CEILING AND
SAY I BELIEVE THAT
THE ISLAND'S SAN ANTONIO AND

TWO YEARS AND THEN THIS YEAR
AND WE DECIDED WITH SOME OF
MY FIREFIGHTER FRIENDS. WE
DECIDED TO HOST OUR OWN EVENT
NEW BRAUNFELS TO REALLY KIND
OF SPREAD TO REACH OUT

WONDERFUL THAT
WONDERFUL THAT THE FIREFIGHTERS ARE RAFTING
THEIR ARMS AROUND THIS CAUSE
ABSOLUTELY. I KNOW SAFETY IS
REALLY BIG WITH THE ALAMO
EVENT AND THEN MY SON WAS
ALSO AN HONORARY FIREFIGHTER
HIMSELF AND HE HAD A LOT OF
FIREFIGHTER FRIENDS SO I KIND
OF WENT TO THOSE GUYS AND
SAID HEY WHY DON'T WE DO
THIS. SO WE'VE GOT
FIREFIGHTERS FROM SEGUIN AND
YOU SEE ARE UNIVERSAL CITY
BRAMBLES AND A COUPLE OTHER
PLACES THAT ARE THEY'VE KIND
OF SPEARHEADED THE FIRST GUYS
