You’re Invited! Join us for a time-honored tradition! Date: Wednesday, August 30, 2023, Time: 6:00 p.m., Location: Station No. 1, 1880 McPherson Avenue. Celebrate the arrival of our brand-new Pierce Mfg Pumper, Engine No. 8305. Relive history as we honor the timeless push-in tradition, symbolizing homage and unity in fire service. Brief History: From the days of manually pushing hand-drawn fire engines in the 17th century to the challenges with horse-drawn steam engines in the 18th and the first motorized fire engines of the 19th century, the push-in ceremony has stood as a testament to the enduring spirit and unity of firefighters. Today’s Celebration: While modern trucks are significantly larger, the tradition continues with a twist! Come explore the new unit, witness a community wetdown, and watch as our custom Pierce Mfg Pumper is ceremoniously “pushed in” to the station, marking its induction into service. Bring your family, share in our pride, and be part of this special event!
