There was a large turnout from the community and politicians in clouding Ed Romaine and Joe DeStefano. The open house started at 6p.m and ended at 9p.m. The open house was held at 171 Oregon Avenue, at the Medford Fire Department headquarters. There was also a presence made by both the Brookhaven Town Fire Marshal’s Office, represented by Brian Smith and the Suffolk County Fire Marshal, with their outstanding arson dog. The Suffolk County Sheriffs Office also brought their emergency management truck and some buggies for the kids to ride. The department also allowed for the public to take a ride up and down their ladder truck, in the basket. What a fun filled night for the family.
