McPherson joined the Department in 1951, over the years has held the rank of Lieutenant, was elecected Honorary Member after his retirement in the early 90's and presented a Life Member pin back in 2001 on his 50th Anniversary. Congratulations Orland!
September 25: Eliot Fire Department would like to thank all those who supported us during Eliot Festival Day by purchasing a food item. Again this year we had to forgo our signature food item, Funnel Cakes. This has been a very hard decision for us the past couple of years. It seems we ask more and more of our firefighters every year which makes it harder and harder for them to balance family time and the Fire Department. Not to mention over the past several years our membership numbers are down significantly. Should this situation change in the future, which we are sure it will, Funnel Cakes will return to our Festival Day menu.
September 11: On the 10th Anniversary of September 11. Members of the Dept. had a small ceremony at the fire station. Members of the Dept. Attended to pay tribute to those who perished on this day. The fire siren whistle was blown and 3 bells rang. (Photo by FF. Hardy)
