Eagle Hose & Hook & Ladder Company 6 has been
serving the Citizens of Ansonia since 1871. We are
located at the corner of Main and East Main Streets,
across the street from Farrel Company, in a
two-story brick hose house we have occupied since
1904. We pride ourselves on providing high quality
emergency services to the City of Ansonia for over
140 years.
Birthday Celebrations
Monday, July 11th was a special day at Eagle
Hose as our oldest living member celebrated his
100th Birthday. George 'Bush' Clark was born in
1911 and joined Eagles in 1932, making him the
oldest, longest serving member in our ranks. So
it was a great turnout from the membership as we
celebrated with Bush and his family. The
Valley Independent Sentinel was there to
cover the event and they even captured the Eagle
Hose "choir" singing Happy Birthday.
...and just 2 weeks prior we celebrated Jay
Murphy's 91st birthday in our Canal Room. Must
be something in the water at Eagle Hose???

Past Captains & Old Timers Night
On Saturday, April 16th, Eagle Hose held their
annual Past Captains and Old Timers Night.
Honored this evening were: Fred Tidmarsh and
Arthur Seccombe (40 years); Victor Tylinski,
Frank Halpin and Arthur Judson (35 years); and
Marcello Boanno and John Thomson III (30 years).
In addition, Howie Williams was presented with
the coveted Cliff Tidmarsh Award for his many
years of faithful service to Eagle Hose.
Many thanks go out to Chef Louie Uvino and his
Posse for the spread they put out and all the
hard work that went into this special evening.
Also, thanks to Joe Matusovich for the work he
put into the video presentations.
Crews were called upon recently to assist in the
clearing of snow from the roofs of several City
buildings. Truck 7 was used to hoist snowblowers
on to roofs, and members also cleared snow from
the bucket.
...wait 'til the Fire Commissioners see this
bill...
