On Nov. 19, the UC Davis Fire Department celebrated the arrival of its new Fire Truck with a traditional push-in ceremony.
This tradition dates back to the era of horse-drawn fire carriages when firefighters would physically push a new firefighting vehicle into the station. Held at Station 34, the event marked a milestone for the department, which only replaces its ladder truck every 15–20 years.
