For the first time since 2019, West Union firefighters will be welcoming the community inside its fire station Thursday, April 20, to attend the annual West Union Fire Department Pancake and Sausage Supper fundraiser.
The fundraiser, which was first held in 1976, was cancelled in 2020 due to the statewide COVID-19 self-isolating order at the time. However, many community members still showed their support by collecting donations to benefit the local fire department. Over the next two years, the firefighters served the dinner by drive-thru only.
