| Middleburg's Reliance Hose Company #1 Fireman's Carnival | |
Tropical Storm Debby decided to flood
streams and the carnival grounds. We showed up but the grounds
were too wet for any chairs to be setup to enjoy the show... We apologize for anyone who did show up to see us. See updated pics below.
We'll give it another try next year 2025 |

First though,
it's NOT about the band..it's about WHY there is a Fireman's Carnival... Even though volunteer firefighters do not live and work in a firehouse like career firefighters, they carry out the same kinds of emergency response duties and non-emergency tasks. |

|
Below are
just
some of the unselfish volunteers who donate their time and
energy as volunteer fire fighters AND those community volunteers
dedicating their time working at the carnival to help raise funds for
the betterment of the community. When you see them
anywhere...just say, "Thanks for what you do." |
|
 Emergency firefighting duties are both challenging and physical. In emergency situations, volunteer firefighters should expect to extinguish and prevent fires as well as administer first aid. |
 |
 |
 |
 Many hours of training is needed... |
 ...for the volunteers to save your life and protect theirs. |
