Please do come! We will have more fire apparatus than usual from several different companies and you'll get to see our big new spectacular aerial ladder truck make it's debut. It is fantastic! We just put it in service a few days ago, and have dedicated it to all our local Newark area military veterans. The new Rescue truck will be in the parade too, dedicated to our own fire company veterans. Your friend Crabby initiated that idea and had banners made that will precede the Rescue and the Ladder in the parade. Now aren't you impressed?

When thunder and lightning was predicted they cancelled. We held the housing ceremony for the new ladder anyway. I may have gotten sunburned. GRRRRR!
