The Russell Springs Fire Department would like to extend a sincere thank you to the Campbellsville Kroger store for donating donuts to our firefighters this morning.

Even though they’re about 40 minutes away, they still took the time to support our department, and that means a lot to us. It’s a great reminder that neighbors matter, no matter the distance.

We truly appreciate the kindness and support shown to our firefighters and our community.
