Post 53, Darien’s emergency medical service, is excited to announce its annual Memorial Day Food Fair signature fundraiser at Tilley Pond Park on Monday, May 27th from 11am – 2pm, immediately following the parade. Tickets can be bought at the event, but are also available for prior purchase at select locations across town, for more information visit our website.
With the help of our sponsors, Baywater Properties, Hollow Tree Storage, and Houlihan Lawrence this year’s event has fun for all ages. It will be filled with food trucks, live entertainment, games, ambulance tours, and a silent auction. Auction items include: Tickets to the Kelly Clarkson Show, a West Marine Inflatable Boat & Engine, a private sail on a gorgeous Catamaran on the Long Island Sound, and don’t miss the “BUY NOW” ride on the Ambulance in the parade for 1 child 8+ years old when the auction opens. Register to bid here.
This town tradition raises money for patient care and equipment, continuous training of our members, and community training events such as Hands Only CPR and Stop the Bleed classes. Post 53’s annual operating budget is 100% funded by donations. It depends on the generous contributions of friends and neighbors to maintain the highest quality of pre-hospital care for the people of Darien.
