May 13th– Fire Truck Show & First Responders Day– This event will give visitors the opportunity to get up close and personal with all aspects of the firefighting industry. During your visit you will also learn more about the Fire Truck Museum’s collection (their museum is at the Connecticut Trolley Museum!) along with local first responders’ equipment and vehicles. Meet first responders and learn what their job entails. This event is a great opportunity to support, honor and thank first responders for the difficult job they do every day. Don’t miss your opportunity to sit in real fire trucks, try on firefighter’s turnout gear, and take home a souvenir kid’s fire fighter hat. Kids will enjoy crafts and hands-on activities! Additionally, take a trolley ride on one of the Museum’s antique trolleys, navigate through the Visitors Center packed full of historic trolleys and dress up as a junior motorman at the imagination station. The Museum will be open 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM with first responders and equipment activities and demonstrations from 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Admission prices are $13 for ages over 2. Museum Members are half off admission and ages under 2 are free.
