If You Hear Sirens And Horns Late Friday Night, Here's Why

Shared by Middlefield Volunteer Fire Company:

***NOTICE: This Friday, June 14th, is the Coginchaug High School graduation. Following tradition, after the ceremony emergency services from Durham and Middlefield will be escorting the busses of graduates to the Middlefield town line as the head to their Project Graduation celebration.

The escort usually begins shortly before 10 pm starting at the high school, traveling Main Street, Durham to Main Street, Middlefield, to Baileyville Road and ending at the Route 66/I-691 interchange.

We understand this may be late and we apologize in advance for the excessive sirens and horns, but this is a unique send off for our small towns and a tradition the graduates have come to know and love.

So if you do hear us coming through town Friday night, please know it is in support of our graduates. Feel free to stop along the route to wave them on wishing them good luck! It is an honor to be apart of this every year and we appreciate your understanding!
