The CLFD's first fire truck is back in Center Line! The "Friends of the Fire Truck" have acquired the 1926 American LaFrance fire truck that the newly-formed Village of Center Line purchased in March of 1926. On the evening of Jan. 18, 2007 they held an Open House for members of the community to view the eighty year-old fire truck, enjoy some refreshments and learn about their group's purchase and restoration plans. Click here for more information and to view photos from the Open House.
The Friends of the Fire Truck are holding a raffle to raise funds for the restoration of the old fire truck. Tickets are $10 each or 3 for $20 and the drawing will be held on Feb. 14, 2008. Ticket and prize information can be found here.
The Friends of the Fire Truck previously held a "Beef in a Box Raffle" with a drawing that was held on June 26, 2007 at the Center Line Fireworks.
The Friends of the Fire Truck also held a Spaghetti Dinner fund raiser on April 19, 2007 at the VFW Hall on Sherwood Ave.
