The Manhasset-Lakeville Volunteer Fire Department and the Great Neck Alert Fire Company recently hosted the 24th Annual Antique Muster at Mary Jane Davies Green in Manhasset. Junior firefighters from all over Long Island competed in fire training drills,
such as midnight alarm, hose rolling, efficiency and bucket brigade.
The Great Neck Alert Junior firefighters won second place for the midnight alarm competition, where, as a team, they had to put their gear on as quickly as possible, as if they were responding to a real fire call.
The Alert Juniors also won second place in the efficiency, hose rolling and bucket brigade events.
For their hard work and valiant efforts, they also took home the Hard Luck Award, as well as second place overall for total points.
In addition to the Junior events and competitions, historical fire trucks and fire apparatus from Long Island and Connecticut were on display.
