Ladder 85 Push In Ceremony August V-1 2023.

Ladder 85 is officially in service! Thank you to everyone that carve out to celebrate with us. The
wet down and push in ceremony dates back to the 1800's and the era of horse-drawn equipment
After crews retumed from a call, the animals were unable to back into the station, requiring
members to detach the horses, wash the wheels and push the equipment into the bay. The push
in and wet down now serves as a tradition in the Fire Service to bless the vehcile and crew and to
place the Vehicle Officially " In Service". #villageoftequesta #firetiwire Ttequestafirerescue

The schools are open and buses are everwhere. Today, Tequesta Fire Rescue and the Tequesta
Police Department launched " Operation Safe Start". Firefighters and Police officers visit area bus
stops, speak with children and parents about bus stop safety and light up the bus stops for all
early morning drivers to see. Remember to please drive carefully and be aware of the children
going to school in the morning and returning home in the afternoon. #tequesta #frerescue
