The First 100 Years
The Historical Society of Mount Lebanon will debut its newest exhibit, Mt. Lebanon: The First 100 Years, on Saturday, February 4. The exhibit will feature a timeline of significant events (pre- and post-1912), items from the society’s collection and old photographs of the community. The center, at 200 Lebanon Avenue, will be open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., on February 4, and the exhibit will run through the end of 2012.
Mt. Lebanon Fire Department centennial open house
The Mt. Lebanon Fire Department will celebrate the centennial with an open house and “push in” ceremony from 4 to 6 p.m., Saturday, February 4, when the department’s new fire truck will arrive. At a push-in, firefighters (and others who may want to help) push the new truck into the garage. This is an old fire house tradition that dates back to when firefighting vehicles were horse drawn. When the horses were released from the apparatus, the firefighters then pushed the vehicle into the fire house. The ceremony joins the past to the present. The event also will feature an exhibit of historic items and photographs from the department.
