The next public event that she went to was to the CAFAA Muster in Gambrils, MD. No judging for this years event but everyone was a winner with a participation award.

She was actively busy during the Memorial Day Weekend as she attended the Lake Shore MD Firefighters parade. I guess Lake Shore could not make up their minds as both the CF-600 and the CF-700 won the Best Appearing Antique award.

The other Mack Chris has is a huge favorite of mine, but there is also something unique to this one that makes it also a sweet looking truck !!
Time to get cought on this thread also. On 6/30/2007 she made the trip out to the Nissan Pavilian in Gainsville, VA to congratulate Chief Richard Bird of the Gainsville District Volunteer Fire Department on 50 Years of Dedicated Service. This was private event but open to public if you knew about it.

You do not see just 2 Semi-Open cab CF-600's together like this often. Just the cabs.
