The main street of Coolamon has turned red, as part of the Fire Engine Muster organised by the Coolamon Fire Museum.
Member for Cootamundra Steph Cooke said it was a privilege to officially open the 2022 Coolamon Fire Engine Muster and pay a special tribute to emergency service personnel.
“Fire Engine owners, history enthusiasts along with locals and visitors alike came to view the vast display of emergency service vehicles, and enjoy the day’s program of events,” Ms Cooke said.
“The main street was bursting with life and there was something for everyone to enjoy. Educational displays, classic cars and bikes, market stalls and even a Firefighters Fun Relay were on offer as part of the festivities.”
“It is well known our emergency services personal work very hard throughout the year, and this is a wonderful and unique way for the community to come together to pay tribute to them.”
Chris and Joanne Berry, managers of Coolamon Fire Museum together with Coolamon Fire and Rescue co-ordinated this event, supported by Coolamon Shire Council.
The Coolamon Fire Museum is a museum dedicated to preserving firefighting equipment, uniforms and memorabilia for the enjoyment and education of all.
