The Newcastle Volunteer Fire Department hosted its annual Fish Fry Fundraiser Saturday, May 1, at the firehouse in Newcastle. The firehouse was filled to capacity with people from Newcastle and the surrounding areas.
“We fed more than 335 people, which is approximately 100 more than last year,” said Teresa Jones, treasurer for the Newcastle Volunteer Fire Department. “We ran out of fish at 6:30 p.m. and had approximately 25 or 30 people still waiting in line,” Jones said.
Jones confirmed that the preliminary fundraising total exceeds $20,000 raised from dinner, donations and the silent auction. Jones said this is more money than they have ever raised. She said the proceeds would benefit the Newcastle Fire Department, and they will use the funds to make necessary building repairs and purchase equipment.
