Sparky and 49th Civil Engineer Squadron firefighters were at the celebration to give tours of the fire trucks, show off their fire-fighting equipment, and raise fire-safety awareness. The Freedom Fest, which took place in the Domenici Fitness and Sports Center parking lot, also included carnival games, rides, live music, and a fireworks display for Airmen and their families.
