PD Tomato Festival

Members of the Pittston Volunteer Fire Company will be available at the Pittston Tomato Festival to put out the fire for those who have consumed too much hot, spicy food. As they have the past few years, the fire fighters will offer cold beer and other adult beverages right at the firehouse adjacent to the Tomato Festival grounds.
