NATIONAL FIRE HERITAGE MUSTER Saturday, June 2, 2012 10AM - 4PM
For more than 150 years, firefighters across the United States have "mustered", or gathered to show off their firefighting equipment, preserve fire service history, and promote fire safety. In celebration of this grand American tradition, antique fire truck collectors and active fire departments from the tri-state and across the nation are gearing up for this event.
