🌧️ THANK YOU! 🚒🇺🇸

The Officers and Members of Citizen’s Hose Co. #1 Of Glassport - Station 161 would like to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who came out and supported our 125th Anniversary Fireman's Parade!

While Mother Nature certainly tried to put a damper on things, the rain didn't stop us—or the many departments, bands, and spectators who helped make today a great success. Your support and dedication are what make events like this so special.

🎶 The band is LIVE right now, so there's still plenty of entertainment to enjoy!

🎡 The Fireman's Fair is still going strong, so come on down for great food, games, rides, and fun for the whole family.

🎆 And don't forget... the fireworks will light up the sky later this evening!

There's still time to join us—we can't wait to see you!
