Our department was 1 of 150 in the United States selected to receive this grant.

Special thank you to State Farm as well as Firefighter Z. Kelly for his work on this grant and commitment to our community.

Last night our department held its annual Christmas dinner. Congratulations to Zack K for being named Firefighter of the Year 2025 and receiving the Chief David Adkins Memorial Award.

This is also the first year our department has had to move our dinner to a bigger location due to the number of volunteers and family that were attending! We hope to continue this growth and that other departments will see the same.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the volunteers at Summers County VFD.
