Our local Fire Station #41 has received a lot of community love lately, in the form of a fresh paint job backed by the efforts of our Mira Mesa HEROES. Once the exterior was completed, the interior had a complete make-over thanks to the efforts of Rebuilding Together San Diego and Turner Construction. Please use this link to view a video of the completed projects. Great job to all the volunteers from both phases of this project, as our Fire Fighters from Station #41 thank you for all of your support and efforts!
