Tullytown Fire Company To Marks 100 Years With Parade, Celebration

The Tullytown Fire Company will be celebrating 100 years of service with a parade.

The volunteer fire company will step off from Walt Disney Elementary School and head onto Levittown Parkway to Route 13, onto Fallsington Avenue and over the bridge, down Main Street, and to the fire station on Bordentown Road starting Saturday at 11 a.m.

At the fire station, a community celebration featuring food, drinks, adult beverages, kids activities, and moon bounce will be held until 4 p.m.

Aaron Cohen, the chief of the fire company, said the parade will feature local groups, politicians, businesses, and firefighters from around the county.

The fire company will be selling T-shirts but supplies are limited due to demand, Cohen said.

In October 1919, five volunteers signed a charter to form the fire company, which has grown in the years since. The current Station 33, the number it is assigned by county dispatchers, has 50 members and responds to about 180 calls per year in the 2.1-square-mile borough and surrounding communities.

Tullytown Mayor David Cutchineal has declared that there will be no parking on Levittown Parkway, Route 13, Fallsington Avenue and the bridge, Main Street and Bordentown Road on Saturday. Those same roads will also be blocked during the parade.
