Van Buren :: August 2004

MCFFA Firefighter Field Day 2004
	September 5th IU Football Stadium

Teams competed from five local fire departments in four events to test their skills and teamwork. Firefighter Challenge, Bucket Brigade, Hose Replacement and Waterball all proved to be challenging for the participants, as well as, entertaining for those viewing the festivities. Definitely a must see for anyone who has yet to experience the competetive nature of firefighters and the brotherhood that keeps it all together.
