Even the torrential rains couldn't dampen the spirits of the firefighters who assembled for the Rose Tree Muster, sponsored by the Cradle of Liberty Antique Fire Apparatus Association, this year featuring SEAGRAVE. A whole lot of companies participated showing off their prize worthy antiques. As the pictures show, some real classics were in attendance. Collingdale No.1 registered their Fire Prevention Trailer and took home another First Place for Fire Prevention to add to their impressive collection. Most of the trucks and engines drove in, but a few classics were trailered in, including a hand pulled hose reel from early 1800s. The rains broke the event early, but a good, although damp time was had by everyone.
