First off, congrats to the Peekskill FD, primarily the members of Washington Engine for pulling off an excellent Convention parade! Craig Stilwell & Pat Strang were 2 committee members that i knew personally who worked hard on this.

Second, congrats to all the departments (Fire, EMS & PD), bands & other organizations that were involved in the parade! Everyone that i saw looked great from the rigs to the marchers. It was a real nice day, perfect weather for a parade, a little hot, but not too bad!

Third, congrats to all the trophy winners, especially those who took home numerous ones such as Croton, Ossining & Brewster(?).

Fourth lol, i had one hell of a time at Blue Mountain afterward, and i think i speak for most of us in attendance! It was a perfect place to have the "after-party" and trophy announcements!

By the way, Buchanan took home 3rd Best Chiefs vehicle (1999 GMC Yukon - 2551), as well as 2nd(?) best dressed. Not to sure about the second one, i have to double-check lol. But we definately took home 2!

Great job by Peekskill. Only one other comment........Please, please move this event from early on a Saturday afternoon to either later in the day or to another evening. It absolutely kills participation because of the time of day on what has become a workday for alot of people.
