Firemen Parade Draws 7000 Volunteers Across Hudson Valley
Thousands of volunteer firemen from Beacon to Glasco converge for the Hudson Walk Volunteer Firemen’s Association convention in 86 degree heat. Andrew Pomarico of Beacon is elected president, succeeding George Babcock of New Windsor as crowds line Main Street. Spectators watch, bands play, and parade uniforms blaze in red and yellow while sirens and bells are kept silent.
