  • The event is in its second year and was started to show appreciation to first responders in a safe way.
  • Arriving firefighters got some applause.
  • And plenty of good food.
  • RSVP volunteers gladly served the first responders.
  • Caitlin Bettinger and Hunter Lansdell cook up the food for the first responders.
Volunteers with the Retired Senior Volunteer Program serve food cooked by Taylor Grocery Catering to local first responders in honor of the 20th anniversary of Sept. 11, sponsored in part by Winchester. Police, firefighters and EMS drove through the pick-up line at the Oxford Activity Center on Wednesday for their free lunch and claps of appreciation.
