Last year they raised almost 50 thousand dollars to support the volunteer fire brigade in Cherry Hill. This morning, 30 hard working folks served us breakfast. From 7 until 11 they slaved away so we could eat sausage, bacon, pancakes, eggs, beans and toast along with juice and coffee or tea. The workers are energetic and efficient as well as pleasant. They did a great job.
The problem for us is that there is just too much food but we like to support these volunteer fire brigades so today we went for brunch. This Cherry Hill Fire Department has great local support. Today they will serve over 500 folks their breakfast. It was hard work for the volunteers but it is well organized and quick. They have one breakfast a month in addition to one fun run a year and a dinner every two months. All these fund raisers net out at almost fifty thousand dollars. I am amazed they don't wear out the volunteers. But everyone seemed in good spirits. Certainly the food was good!! May they long survive.
