As in years past, the Westport Firefighters at the Saugatuck firehouse made sure all the kids waiting on line got an opportunity to climb on the fire truck, getting an chance to rig the bell and perhaps dreaming of one day becoming a Westport Firefighter.

The Black Duck staff enthusiastically served up their famous wings. Westport First Selectwoman Jen Tooker, Second Selectwoman Andrea Moore and RTM member Andrew Colabella made sure they got to enjoy the entire event, pausing on Railroad Place for a quick photo before getting back to sampling the street's excellent cuisine.

The Gault family provided kids a chance to create some artwork and get their face painted in the parking area of Match Burger & Lobster.

Even a few adorable pups strolled the event getting love from doggie fans.
