On Saturday Night Avondale Fire held it annual banquet. The banquet was held at the Red Clay Room in Kennett. The night started at 1800 hrs with a social hour and invocation, while a slide show of the year’s events played on the projector. That was followed by dinner which was, chicken marsala, baked ziti, prime rib, ham, potatoes, green beans and various desserts. Dinner was followed by the program which was announced by EMS supervisor Rob Linnenbaugh. The company thanked Jason and Ricky for the work in getting the web site up and running. The awards were given out and the raffles were pulled. Then the night of fun and dancing began. The company had a great time dancing to its traditional song the “SHOUT”, were all the Avondale firefighters join in a circle and place their feet in the air when the main verse plays. The company would like to thank Cochranville for the cover up they provided during the festivities.
