71st Annual Ice Cream Social
The Ice Cream Social will continue under the direction of the fire department. This event offers something for all ages! Demonstrations take place front and center all day long as our firefighters demonstrate their skills! Families get to experience the jaws of life, truck demonstrations, technical rope rescues, fire extinguisher demonstrations and much more. While you watch, enjoy some fresh fire house favorites like our famous BBQ chicken, hot dogs, hamburgers, coleslaw, baked beans and of course ice cream. In addition, we have events for the kids; real fire hoses with water to spray, foam fun, antique fire apparatus and of course paint the fire truck and much more!
