Some pictures from our recent trip to Washington DC for the National Memorial Day Concert. It was such a privilege to participate in this production. We met fellow first responders from FDNY and the Pentagon. We also met several WWII veterans and Rosie the Riveters from "the greatest generation." A special thank you to Gary Sinise for inviting us to participate.

SHANKSVILLE SALE DAY COOKOUT
Every year, the town of Shanksville presents a massive, village-wide rummage sale on the first Saturday of June, and every year, the Shanksville Volunteer Fire Department satisfies the taste buds of the hordes of hungry bargain hunters with a barbeque at the grove kitchen, 1291 Cornerstone Road, just below the school at the east end of Main Street, Shanksville. This year the kitchen will open at 9:00 AM, Saturday June 6th with a menu featuring charcoal broiled chicken halves, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, sides and beverages. You are invited to take a break from shopping and enjoy a tasty picnic lunch. See you there!

There is confusion about a chicken BBQ this weekend. Our Shanksville VFD is not cooking chicken Saturday, however our neighbors Stoystown Volunteer Fire Company will be cooking at their station. Our Chicken BBQ is June 6 during sale days.
