Holy water? It was a stirring moment when the new engine pulled out of its bay at Station 10 on River Road with lights and siren going, and passed through an arch of spray from two other engines. Photo contributed by CJPVFD
Replica of the new truck, E-710, sits in the fire station with a copy of the dedication plaque.
Saturday’s dedication of the new fire engine #710 at Cabin John Park Volunteer Fire Department was a combination of different and traditional.
Different, because of restrictions required by COVID-19. Traditional, exhibited by parts of the ceremony that harken back to times when fire trucks were pulled by horses.
