Challenge Cup, an open competition that encourages firefighter fitness
and demonstrates the profession’s rigors to the public. Wearing full
turnout gear and Scott 5.5 Air-Pak breathing apparatus, teams of 2
will race head-to-head while simulating the physical demands of reallife
firefighting. The Firehouse Challenge Cup is open to any members
of a firehouse, including firefighters, EMTs and paramedics and admin
personnel. There is no fee to enter and the 3 teams with the fastest times
will win Firehouse Challenge Cup plaques.
While most of the activities inside the festival will be free, rides in the fire
truck tower buckets will cost a small fee. Food vendors will also be set up
at KASF selling delicious treats and eats to festival guests. Members of
School of Rock - Katy will provide live musical entertainment throughout
the afternoon from the main stage.

This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines
that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse
and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high,
as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs.
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National
Survey on Drug Use and Health shows year after year that the majority of
misused and abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends,
including someone else’s medication being stolen from the home medicine
cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for
disposing of unused medicines-flushing them down the toilet or throwing
them in the trash—both pose potential safety and health hazards.
For more information about the disposal of prescription drugs or about
the April 27 th Take Back Day event, go to www.DEATakeBack.com or
contact Fulshear Police Department at 281-346-8888.
