Today more than 160 members make up the Waltham Fire Department and serve the public by providing fire suppression, emergency medical, fire prevention, fire safety education, rescue and hazardous materials response services. A long way from 1817 when each individual was required to have a bucket and be part of a bucket brigade.
Join us as Steve Lydon, retired firefighter, takes us from today back to the beginning of the Waltham Fire Department.
Join us at the Waltham Museum for our free event on Saturday, February 15th 2025, 12-1:30pm at 25 Lexington St. Waltham. Tours and refreshments available.
Seats are limited, so signup by calling 781-893-9020 or emailing [email protected] with name, phone# & email, and number of participants. Parking available in the Public Parking Garage directly across from the Waltham Museum.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Waltham Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
