Cobb Island Volunteers Attend Colonial Beach Parade and Win Big
On Friday night, members from company 6 attended a parade in Colonial Beach, Virginia and were awarded with several trophies and awards including Colonial Beach Fire departments coveted Best Pierce Apparatus in Line of Parade named after Past Chief Charles E. Catlett. The success was the best showing that Cobb Island has ever had at that particular parade. The parade is known as one of the noisiest parades on the east coast due to the siren and horn blowing that is allowed and encouraged. A special thank you to Colonial Beach for putting on such a fun event and to the Colonial Beach Fire Department members for their assistance with helping us celebrate as we made our loud exit from town.
Members attending: Fire Capt. Bobby Higgs, Life Member Chuck Shaw, FF C. J. Lancaster, FF Anna Belmore, FF Robert Higgs, FF Lisa Payne, FF Ed Payne, Auxiliary Member Betty Higgs, Cadet Charity Higgs, Cadet Ashley Cherrico, Cadet Brandon Rice.
Trophies/Awards: Best Appearing Overall Company, Best Appearing Company (Out of State), Best Appearing Pierce Apparatus, Best Appearing Custom Pumper, Best Appearing Support Unit, 2nd Best Appearing Brush Vehicle.
