Tri County Fire Muster and Firefighter Games 

For the fifth year in a row, Alburtis volunteers met at the firehouse at 9 O'clock in the morning to wipe down the apparatus one last time, load up their turn out gear, and drive to Berks County's New Berlinsville Fire Department for the 23rd Annual Fire Muster and Competition.  This year, Alburtis attended with Engine 111 and Tanker 121 as well as 12 members of our crew.  This years' events included a beach volleyball tournament, tug of war, first water engine company speed drill, and the water rocket.  By the end of the day, Alburtis was awarded 7 trophies and one pet award.  Thanks to New Berlinsville Fire Department for once again holding this event.  Everyone had a great day participating in the events.
