This August fire departments of Netcong borough and Stanhope borough will stage hose companies on opposing shores of lake Musconetcong for an epic duel of strategic fire hose operation and raw power.  August 19 at 4 PM spectators will watch these two neighboring towns fire departments blast their hoses for bragging rights of the first Firemans Challenge.
