Nature: Annual Fire Company & Ladies Auxiliary Appreciation Banquet
Location: Independence Banquet Hall
On Saturday, February 23rd, the Indian River Volunteer Fire Company held its Annual Appreciation Banquet for both the volunteer fire company and the ladies auxiliary members at Independence Hall near Millsboro. This event is targeted annually to recognize the many hours of volunteerism; years of community services; and contributions from the organization’s men and women who choose to participate and volunteer within their respective community.
The event hosted approximately 170 volunteers from Indian River and surrounding mutual aid companies including but not limited to: Lewes (82) Fire Department, Millsboro (83) Fire Company, Georgetown (77) Fire Company, Milton (85) Fire Company, Dagsboro (73) Fire Company, Frankford (76) Fire Company, the Sussex County Volunteer Firefighters Association Representatives, Sussex County Fire Chiefs Association, and the Sussex County Ladies Auxiliary.
This year’s theme was to recognize and celebrate Indian River’s 65th Anniversary in the volunteer fire service as well as to recognize the years of service from specific ladies auxiliary and fire company members; top responders for fire company fighter and fire police personnel; and elected officers.
Immediate Past Chief Steven C. Deery, Jr. was presented an award for his 10-year tenure as Chief. Also, Vice President Mario Street was awarded his Life Membership within the Indian River Volunteer Fire Company. Additionally, the following membership milestones were recognized:
