Carnation Festival Meet
August 9-12, 2007

PCS

PCS members converged on Alliance, Ohio to participate in a meet sponsored by the Tri-State and Ohio Chapters, held in conjunction with the area's Carnation festival.

The event got off to a rough start when tornadoes threatened the area Thursday afternoon. Members and their cars sought refuge in the Sharer Stirling Skivolocke Funeral Home's massive garage.

After the threatening weather passed firefighters asked Dan Skivolocke to use his car to help block the roadway littered with downed power lines.

Despite continuing rainy weather many attendees drove their cars in procession for various tours the following days.

One of the tours included a visit to Smith Ambulance's facilities where members viewed their impressive collection of vintage ambulances, emergency medical equipment, and funeral memorabilia.

For one of the tour's highlights members were allowed to run with lights and sirens in procession to one of the locations.
