Annual Boise Fire Local 149 to Host Pumpkin Patch Benefiting the Community

October 8, 2019

The Boise Fire Pumpkin Patch has been a fall tradition at Station #10 for eleven years. This year, the pumpkin patch is raising money to benefit our Community Assistance Fund.

"This is a great event that we look forward to each year. All the work that goes into this event takes hours and hours of planning, but we love to see families come out and pick out a pumpkin and enjoy all the activities we have. We have a lot of great pumpkins to choose from this year and we look forward to doing this for the community each year. It’s also a bonus that the money we raise goes back to help those in the community," said Boise Firefighter and event organizer Stephen Procedo.

When: Saturday, Oct. 12 from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Media preview October 11, call to arrange a time.

Where: Behind Boise Fire Station #10, 12065 West McMillan Road. Carpooling is encouraged as parking is available, but limited. Overflow parking provided by the bank located to the west of the station.
