Fundraising for Gary Sinise Foundation
donate.garysinisefoundation.org
We are a group of veterans, active duty members, first responders and civil servants marching the flag 100 miles, nonstop, to the 9/11 memorial. Along the way we will be raising funds to support our nation’s heroes through the Gary Sinise Foundation.
There were 12 Charter members who took part in the organization. The Fire Company was incorporated on February 16, 1960, and on June 18, 1960 the fire company went into full operation. Our first truck was a used 1940 American LaFrance pumper. It was 500 gallon per minute pumper with a 160 gallon booster tank. The booster tank was later increased to hold 500 gallons of water.
We also purchased a Dodge truck with a 1000 gallon booster tank and a 250 gallon per minute rotary pump. A 300 gallon per minute portable pump was donated by Walker Gordon and later mounted on top of the tank of the Dodge. A 1946 Chevrolet pumper was purchased by the fire company from the Forrestal Center and reconditioned.
