Griffons host Public Safety Night

Wednesday, June 22, 2011

A big crowd was forming for Tuesday night's game at Lyons Stadium, when the Nevada Griffons hosted Public Safety Night, much to the delight of Blake Woods, 5, left, and Alex Woods, 3.

Under the watchful eye of Nevada firefighters on the scene, the two closely inspected a fire truck on display for the occasion, inside and out, and Blake even tried a fire hat on for size.

A MedFlight helicopter had been slated to deliver the ball for the opening pitch, but duty called and the aircraft was unavailable. A police cruiser also was on display, and an informational display was available from Nevada Regional Medical Center.

Meanwhile, the Griffons were preparing to take on the Sedalia Bombers. For game details, see Page 10 of today's edition of the Nevada Daily Mail.
