I shot this clip during the Plunge in the Park and hadn't gotten around to using it. The police officers are on the left and the firefighters are on the right in this game of tug-of-war.

Police put up a good fight, but Monroe's firefighters eventually won out.

The game was played before the Plunge, which is a fundraiser for Special Olympics Connecticut.
