Where I live, we have a local community center that has a HUGE empty
grassy area next to it and an old baseball diamond next to that which is
ALSO right next to the local volunteer firedepartment building (
unmanned usually). I happen to be GOOD friends with the local community
center folks ( My church owns it, and I am on the board), and I also
know a few firemen who might want to watch & have a training exercise..
Of course the downside is, I am in Sanford community, see map here:

the lot is actually the entire triangle bounded by Nowhere road, sanford
Nicholson rd, and Loyd Nelms.
