GFD thanks open house supporters
To the editor:
The Greencastle Fire Department would like to extend a special "thanks" to the following supporters who contributed to the 11th annual open house event on Oct. 13.
We had a huge success with record-breaking attendance of 300-plus this year. The winners of the coloring, poster and art contests were recognized with ages ranging from Pre-K to 12th grade.
Everyone in attendance enjoyed great food, entertainment from Patches, and fire prevention education through our "Smokehouse" experience.
