Washington Volunteer Fire Department to host annual Mother’s Day BBQ
MUSKINGUM COUNTY, Ohio- The Washington Township Volunteer Fire Department is hosting its 53rd annual Mother’s Day chicken BBQ dinner on Sunday.
The event will be drive-thru only. There will be no dining in, carry out or order ahead. The volunteers are hoping for a nice day, as the event is rain or shine.
“Just show up. We start serving at 11. We’ll actually have people cooking the chicken all night long. They will start about 1 o’clock in the morning. So they can show up at 11 o’clock and we’ll start serving. We’re going to have three lines out front here and we’ll be directing traffic the best we can,” Washington Assistant Chief Jon Hittle said.
The Alliance Review
A large crowd stopped Sunday at Washington Township Volunteer Fire Department to take part in the annual breakfast fundraiser.
The event was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but returned this year as a drive-through event.
Fire Chief Terry Wilson said the breakfast, in at least its 40th year, sold hundreds of meals, which consisted of eggs, sausage, hash browns, toast, and pancakes and syrup.
The department got help from youngsters Garrett Dickerhoof and Adam Brahler, who collected donations in a firefighter boot as meals were handed through the passenger-side window of vehicles.
