Welcome to the
Multimedia Gallery! We have divided the galleries into three
categories for your enjoyment. In Incidents, you can view
some of the many emergency and non-emergency call-outs that we have
responded to. The Training and Drills
section helps illustrate how we prepare for and practice the
many skills we need to provide the many services we do to the
Town and citizens of Simsbury. Lastly, the
General Interest section contains photographs from
activities such as
public events, promotions, and items of interest to the general public.
Enjoy!
