Award reason for pride
To the editor:
Princeton justifiably prides itself on the quality of its volunteer services. Engine Company No. 1 recently provided us with another reason for this feeling.
After edging Hook and Ladder as the best maintained/looking apparatus in Princeton’s Firemen’s Parade on June 26, No. 1 and its 10-year-old pumper captured two awards in a large competition in Monmouth Junction on July 4.
The effort that leads to such honors also leads to better and less costly protection for us. Three cheers for No. 1 and the rest of Princeton’s volunteers.
