Engine 260 Fire Muster
In a recent actifit post I shared some shots of the Engine 260 Fire Muster held in Eisenhower Park, A fun event I always enjoy going to see the Fire trucks and activities, I missed it for the last couple of years so I was glad to catch it this time.
This was the 48th Running of the Fire Muster, which starts with a parade of the Fire Trucks around Milford in the morning ( which I missed0 then the trucks park up in Eisenhower park for people to see, they have various competitions between the area fire fighting teams including Tug of War, and other events.
I got there just as the even was starting so was able to get a shot of the Pipes and Drum Band playing and the opening speeches which is where I discovered with this event has been ongoing each year for 48 Years it is the longest-running annual event in Milford

And a few more shots since I took so many there, I won't say much will just let you enjoy the variety of Fire trucks from here on in
Some well at least one fire truck even comes in a shade of blue
They even had a flea market selling all kinds of fire fighting memorabilia, I did take a look but didn't pick up anything I am trying to downsize before our next move and hence buying new stuff is not a good idea
This shot is of the tent holding allthr trophys that will be awarded during the event
And that’s all folks
