Fire Truck Parade & Muster
Each Father’s Day weekend, fire buffs of all ages line Historic Downtown Littleton’s Main Street in anticipation of Schomp’s annual Fire Truck Parade & Muster, presented since 1985 in partnership with Mile High Hook Ladder, an all-volunteer antique fire truck club “dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and operation of fire apparatus in America”. This free family-friendly event starts with an impressive parade of antique fire trucks and modern-day fire/rescue apparatus which rolls through downtown Littleton with “lights and sirens”, then musters at Arapahoe Community College where attendees can climb in and on the rigs, take fire truck rides, have their photos taken with firefighters, take part in junior firefighter games, and experience a realistic “jaws of life” auto extrication and medical helicopter landing.
