The mist created a rainbow when sunlight passed through the spray, delighting many of the children in attendance. With a Western Salisbury Volunteer Fire Company engine positioned at one end of the parking lot and the Eastern Salisbury rescue engine at the other, participants had plenty of room to run through the water and escape the week’s intense heat.
