AFD members honored for volunteer services
The Arkville Fire Department held its Annual Dinner on April 6 at the Colonial Inn in Pine Hill.
Several department members were honored for their years of service. Robert Sweeney was presented a plaque commemorating his 40-plus years of membership and 25 years as fire chief.
Connie Spielman and Charlene Bode were each given a pin marking their 30 years of service to the AFD.
The other anniversary award presented at the dinner went to Curtis Earl who received a pin marking five years of department membership.
The top five responders (members turning out for the highest number of calls) were Mark Finch, Jessica Olenych, Cheryl Roberts, Shawn Rosa and Adam VanValkenburg. They each received a gift certificate for a pizza at Oakley’s Place.
Approximately 50 people attended the dinner.
