Fire Engine Birthday Party
May 4, 2023 @ 5:00 PM - 7:30 PM
On May 4th, 1923, the Brodhead Fire Department purchased a shiny new REO Fire Engine. On Thursday, May 4th, 2023, that very same Fire Engine No. 1 will turn 100 years old.
We teamed up with the Brodhead Fire Department to restore the engine and host a special party –
and you’re invited!
Join us from 5-7:30pm on Thursday, May 4th, to celebrate! The party will include:
- Kids free giveaways, crafts, and toys
- Free ice cream and a “Build Your Own Ice Cream Sundae” table
- Ding A Ling Supper club Food Truck will be on site, serving delicious meals!
- Free museum tours
- Photo ops with fire engines and vintage cars
- Weather permitting, the 1923 engine will be driven in a demonstration!
- The Brodhead Fire Department will have a modern fire engine on display
The party is free and open to the public, from 5 to 7:30pm at our museum hangars, located at N2463 Airport Rd, Brodhead, WI. See you on May 4th!
