October 31: The Limerick crew started Halloween day by rescuing a black cat from a tree on Metka Rd. Ladder 51's crew extended the ladder to reach the cat and brought it down to the family who found it in the tree. The day continued with an event at Patriot Chevrolet that Engine 51 attended. That evening, Engine 51’s overnight duty crew joined a brief parade escorting the Spring-Ford band to the high school after its state championship win. Back at the station, the crew shared dinner before heading to a nearby neighborhood to hand out candy and trinkets to trick-or-treaters. Several excited kids stopped by for photos with “Casper” and the crew. While they were there, Engine 51 was dispatched to Perkiomen’s first house fire, beginning a very busy night.
