63rd Annual Tri-State Firefighters Meet

Firefighters and family from around the region meet at the Brooklyn Fairgrounds in Brooklyn, Ct. Sunday. The 63rd Annual Tri-State Firefighters Meet was held and fire apparatus from CT, RI and MA along with DEP Units and the Connecticut State Fire Marshall's vehicle were on display to name a few. Members of the Mortlake Fire Dept. held a vehicle extrication demonstration for spectators to see, while many others ventured around the food stands and exhibit hall. It was nice to stop by and see the many vendors on hand, Boston Fire Apparel, Fireground Images and Providence Fire Videos are just some of the displays. Below are some photos that I took from the grounds, I wasn't able to stay till the end so I don't have info on the apparatus awards.
