Spring is now just weeks away and soon it will be time for us to dig out of our winter hibernation. Events and local activities will be back in full swing without the threat of weather canceling or postponing our plans. It also means that our local fire house's will begin to ramp up their monthly events. Pancake breakfast, Pasta dinners plus flea markets and more will all start populating our calendars.

These monthly fundraiser are a staple for quite few of our local firehouses. It help with raising money for services, equipment and other items that these organization need to assist their communities in times of need.

Check the list of events below for your local fire company. Try to make it to as many events as you can throughout 2019. If you are part of a fire house and want us to include you on this list we update each week please email us at paty.quyn@townsquaremedia.com.
