Annual Fire Muster
Contributed by: Alice Gohlke on 7/1/2007

The Annual Fire Muster was Saturday June 30 at The Citadel mall parking lot. Fun was had by all as we tried to stay hydrated in the heat. Hundreds of people, young and old, came to see the shiny, big, red trucks, haz-mat decontamination equipment, eat food, and watch demonstrations of extrication, a propane burn and a real car fire. Both Flight for Life and Memorial Star were landed side by side and children took turns sitting in the seat as parents took pictures. There was also a truck-pulling contest, which the combination of the big, strong guys of Fort Carson Fire and Hanover combined forces to win, pulling Black Forest's water tender more than 30 feet.
