Katonah Fire Department's Engine 117 was on hand Wednesday night for Caramoor's annual July 4 Concert and Fireworks Show at the Caramoor Center for the Arts on Girdle Ridge Road. Each year, the department is requested to stand by next to the fireworks launch area to make sure no errant spark, ember, or rocket causes a brush or tree fire. Although we had to stand by in full gear during the show, it didn't take away from the fact that we had the best seats in the house for a truly impressive fireworks display. Fortunately, all the fireworks were set off without incident. It was a really memorable evening for the stand by crew.
