A Day in the History of the Fishkill Fire Department

October 3rd, 1912 was day in the history of Protection Engine that saw the widest possible range of emotion. It was the day that the panoramic photograph was taken of all the marchers in field where Emery and Webb Insurance Co stands. As the account by Herman Dean from his 100th Anniversary of PECo book points out, it was a beautiful, more summer like day than a typical autumn day. The parade was a huge success and everyone enjoyed themselves during and after the parade. Then evening came. What turned out to be a false alarm was sounded and by the time all was said and done, a young man visiting from Newburgh lost his life. Here is Herman Dean’s account.

For the season, it was an unusually warm day, more appropriate to July or August. The town had been gaily decorated; in fact many of the decorations were elaborate. The streets had been swept and cleaned and the Village looked very pretty. Visitors began to arrive in the morning, but the bulk of out-of-town people who witnessed the festivities did not arrive until about the time the parade started.

March 03, 2007 will mark the 104th time Protection Engine Company of Fishkill, NY has served this Annual Event.
