90 years young

Congratulations to the Longwood Fire Company on its 90th birthday! Station 25 celebrated on Sunday, Oct. 16, with its annual open house. Quite a crowd of families -- cars filled the parking lot and were parked up and down the road -- were there chatting with the firefighters, checking out the fire company's equipment and displays and sitting down to the delicious-smelling chicken barbeque.
Pierre DuPont formed the company, originally called the Longwood Fire Brigade, in 1921 to protect Longwood Gardens.
