The City of Shakopee unveiled its newly wrapped fire truck Zamboni at the Shakopee girls hockey game Thursday. 

"Our fire truck Zamboni celebrates the rich and meaningful contributions of the brave firefighters who serve our community at the Shakopee Fire Department," Mayor Bill Mars said.

Speaking at the ice arena Thursday while the Zamboni was revealed, Mars gave a special thank you to SignPRO for partnering on the design of the Zamboni's unique wrap. 

"They have been amazing partners who did a fantastic job bringing our creative idea to life in this innovative design," Mars said.
