October brings cooler weather and the start of the holiday season. Plano has it all for you, from the Plano International Festival to the new Rest in Peace Festival. We're really excited about a unique special event: The grand opening of the new Fire Training Facility. Deputy Chief Marc Pate with Plano Fire-Rescue joins Steve and Shannah to share details on the new facility and explain how Plano makes sure our fire rescue staff are trained to respond with excellence.
