On November 19th-21th, 2008 members of the Park Ridge Fire Department Truck Committee made a second trip to Appleton, WI to inspect the progress on the Department's new aerial ladder. Earlier in 2008 the Borough of Park Ridge enetered into a contract with Pierce Manufacturing to construct a 100' Aluminum ladder. The truck which began production in early August finished construction in the begining of November and was ready for final inspection, as such, the committee went to Wisconsin to ensure that the truck was constructed according to the specifications.
The Department is anxiously awaiting the truck to be placed in service, we are hoping to take delivery in time to escort Santa Claus to Depot Square on Christmas Eve.
A photo the truck is also available on
Pierce Manufacturing's Website.
