About ANTIQUE TOY AND FIREHOUSE MUSEUM

Location:

3456 Patterson Road, Bay City, MI 48706, US

Mission Statement

The goal and mission of the museum is to celebrate and preserve the rich firefighting history of the Great Lakes Bay region. The museum hosts a unique collection of firefighting equipment from the mid 1800's to modern times and is complemented by a collection of collectible toys. Several apparatus are operational, including the 1922 Model T pumper, and rides are offered to guests on fair-weather days. The museum is also home to the largest fire apparatus ever used, the FDNY Super Pumper.

Description

A Board of Directors oversee the day-to-day operations of the museum. The museum is 100% volunteer run and relies on grants and donations for funding. Volunteers help secure grants, help with daily operations, and fix trucks so they can be showcased in parades and local car shows.
