In cooperation with the Merrimack Fire Rescue Department, the Rotary Club of Merrimack is offering an opportunity to ride in a fire engine in the July 4th parade - ring the bell, blow the horn and siren, and wave to your friends and neighbors from the loudest and best seat in the parade! Raffle drawing will be July 2nd and the winner will be notified by phone, so be sure to list a number where you can be reached on the morning of the 2nd .
The winner gets two seats on the fire engine. A child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Riders must understand and agree that, in the event of an emergency, they could be dropped off at any point along the parade route so the engine company can answer the call.
Raffle entries are $2.00 each and may only be purchased on this website: www.merrimack4th.com. There is no limit to the amount of tickets an individual can purchase.
