RICHMOND, Va. — Firefighters working to contain the Rocky Mount fire in the Shenandoah National Park received “thank you” drawings for their efforts.

WTVR.com reported that the artwork by two girls, named Stella and Eliza, sent drawings to the Grottoes Volunteer Fire Department, one of several fire departments involved in the containment efforts.

“Fire is red, water is blue. I don’t know firefighters better than you!” read one of the drawings.

The Facebook post by Shenandoah National Park thanked the girls and wrote: “You made the firefighters smile today!”

The fire has burned 9,000 acres and crews are using air units to help with efforts. The fire is believed to have been caused by civilians.
