Captain Rich Randall has made the dream of a decontamination vehicle a reality. Children removed from meth labs will be warm and comfortable as they go through the decontamination process. The vehicle is self contained which includes warm water for the showers. Captain Randall has equipped the vehicle with donated clothing, shoes, quilts, blankets, and toys given to the children after they shower. He's decorated the walls and provided fun soaps and shampoos. His enthusiasm is extraordinary. He's donated not only his time and energy, but funds to provide the extras. View the photo album.
 

  		Jerry Harden II co-owner of Rhino Linings of FlatIrons. Jerry and his staff lined the entire decontamination vehicle with a protective polyurethane coating. The process of lining the vehicle was amazing, they went above and beyond on this project. The coating is heated then sprayed throughout the vehicle and is seamless. During the process they worked in temperatures reaching 250 degrees. View the photo album.
 

  		Jo-Anne Ginther owner of Dry Creek Quilts with Captain Rich Randall. Jo-Anne and her group make and donate quilts for the children found in meth labs. When children are removed from a meth lab they must leave all of their personal possessions behind. When meth is manufactured the process contaminates their clothing and belongings with toxic chemical or methamphetamine residue. The beautiful quilts bring them comfort in many ways.

Troy Smith from CCPI (Colorado Community Policing Intitute) provided sweats for first responders, police officers, social workers and others contaminated in meth labs. These sweats are very much appreciated by everyone going through the decontamination process who are without a change of clothes.
