Fire Fighters Memorial ceremonies
Dates:
September 13-17, 2011
Description:
In conjunction with the Fire Fighters Memorial ceremonies this week, Miramont Castle Museum and the Manitou Springs Volunteer Fire Department invite any firefighter (with proper identification) to complimentary admission to the Castle.
Included is the recently-opened Fire Department display, a museum-within-a-museum, featuring antique and vintage fire department equipment from around the Pikes Peak region. Its hallmark is an antique hose cart, the oldest piece of fire apparatus registered with the Colorado State Firefighters Association, owned by the MSVFD since 1880. Fascinating authentic memorabilia and photographs of a bygone era surround it.
