🌱 Mountain Brook Fire Dept. Meets Girl Scouts + Birmingham Film Lab

Hello again, everybody! It's Thursday in Mountain Brook and I'm back in your inbox with everything you need to know about what's happening in town. Today we'll cover:

• 🚒 The fire department meets a local Girl Scouts group.
• 🎞 A new film lab is opening in Birmingham.
• 🏐 Girls varsity volleyball tournament happening today.

But first, today's weather:

Partly sunny. High: 77 Low: 45.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Mountain Brook who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Mountain Brook Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories in Mountain Brook today:

1. The Mountain Brook Fire Department's Engine 1 had the opportunity to meet with and educate the Crestline Girl Scout Brownies on Tuesday. (Mountain Brook Fire Department via Twitter)
2. Two local Birmingham photographers will soon be opening The Magic City's only operating film lab. While film photography isn't as popular as it was, "With digital you can take 30 pictures in an instant, and maybe one of them is good," said Jordan Higgins, a co-owner. "Film forces you to slow down and focus on being in the moment." (Bham Now)
3. Asbury United Methodist Church is hosting its annual Halloween trunk-or-treat on Sunday, Oct. 23, featuring "free candy and popcorn, carnival rides, a cake walk, plus games for the whole family." There will be food from five food trucks — Eugene’s Hot Chicken, Slice Pizza, Taqueria La Chilanguita, GG’s Food Truck, and Boho Tea Company. (280 Living)
