August 19th was the Annual Middletown Peach Festival and the Annual open house at Volunteer Hose Company.  The morning began with a parade through the streets of Middletown, with marching bands, cars, floats, and fire trucks.  After the parade concluded the town was full of visitors as well as residents, who walked down West Main Street, Pennington Street, West Green Street and through Town Hall parking lot enjoying the many vendors and food options.  There were demonstrations as well as neighboring Fire Companies in the Volunteer Hose Company parking lot.  The weather cooperated and everyone had a good time.  The Volunteer Hose would like to thank all those that participated in the open house and we look forward to doing it again next year.
