Squad 53
Hyde Park Community Days was a huge success. We appreciate the vendors, anyone who helped in any way, and all who came out and had a good time. Special thank you to all the bands that gave up some time to come out and play for the days. We would also like to thank all of the residents of Hyde Park for coming out and making this the event that it was. If it was not for the residents the town and volunteer fire department would not be where it is today. Come back and enjoy our Fall Fest this September and if you can't make it we hope to see you again at Community Days next year!
