Coordinated by members of the Winchester and Frederick County firefighters, the Firefighters’ Parade will step off at 6 p.m. Friday, May 1.
Come downtown to the Midway for carnival food, games and entertainment and then head over to the parade route to see the Antique Firetruck’s start with the pre-parade, some trucks date back to the early 1920’s! Our local Fire Companies are in the First Division to show off their equipment. There are celebrities, Miss Honorary Fire Company winners, marching bands and special units. There are 4 Divisions with Fire and Rescue Equipment from all over the Mid Atlantic Region. The final division is the Siren Division where the Fire Companies sound their horns. This is a wonderful community event, where friends and families gather together to Thank our Fire and Rescue teams.
