PARADES: Fourth of July, Christmas, New Years, etc. Any parade and date. You can sponsor the truck for any group or use it to promote your own business or organization. Snorkel trucks are available. These trucks offer more options for special effects than the engine trucks. See our parade pictures from the University of Florida Homecoming Parade!

PROMOTIONS: Holiday Sales, Fire Sales, Car Sales, Grand Openings, Ground Braking, Etc. Imagine a dozen fire trucks of all types spread around your shopping mall or business: from fire engines to ladder trucks and snorkel trucks. You can even elevate your signs over 85 feet in the air. Now that will get you the crowd your looking for! Special effects props are also available to make an even bigger statement. The 85 foot high snorkel truck can be seen from nearly a mile away. We also have posters and fliers to promote the event before and during the event. You can have demonstrations, contest, drawings, rides, and giveaway of Smokey's Fire Department products, which range from very inexpensive items that can be distributed to all attendants, to high quality products for special attendees. Promotional packages are available to fit the needs of a large shopping mall or department store.

PICTURES: Lots of options abound for photo opportunities. From a parked fire engine in a  other populated event where parents can take their own photos; or a professional photographer on location can take the photos and offer several packages. This concept works for fairs, grand openings and any other event where you wish to attract people. You may even go so far as to have an Easter Bunny or Santa Claus available for the holiday season. If you are having a big sale or promotion, let the public know that photos will be available. You may offer them free to the guest, subsidize the cost, or allow the guest to purchase their own. It will attract a crowd.

FAIRS & CARNIVALS: May be used for drawing attention to the event, as well as for several other promotions. For parking lot shuttles, in which the event operator pays for the ambulance in whole. Makes for a great added attraction to the event (can carry up to 6 people). Another option, offer rides around the parking lot or event grounds. This can be a charge-per-passenger, like any other ride at the fair. More ideas are: use it for photo opportunities; rope off the area and allow the kids to climb on the truck; or make it a safety exhibit and give short, educational classes.

CONVENTION RENTAL: Want to draw attention to your booth or exhibit? Just parking one or more of our trucks in your exhibit space will insure that you will be the most visited and talked about exhibit at the convention - period.
