| Each June, the Mattituck Lions Club host their annual Strawberry Festival.
The festival, is now in its 71st year has grown to become one of the largest events of the year on the East End of Long Island, and now includes a carnival, vendors, music and fireworks.
The event draws thousands of people to the festival grounds located on Route 48 in Mattituck over the course of Fathers Day weekend each year.
The Cutchogue Fire Department, along with departments from the North Fork, assisted the Mattituck Fire Department providing EMS and Fire coverage for the festival and the firework shows.
On Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, CFD firefighters manned an engine for fireworks at the festival, while on Sunday afternoon an eager crew of EMT's from CFD stood by on the festival grounds with the Mattituck Rescue Squad in the event of any medical emergencies.
The Cutchogue Fire Department would like to congratulate the Mattituck Lions Club on another successful year, and thank them for all that they do for our community. |
