AUXILIARY - 2026 CHICKEN DINNER SEASON CLOSES
As we close out Fried Chicken Dinner season, we want to take a moment to say "THANK YOU" to the community that continued to show up for us, month after month.
Together, you helped us serve approximately 2,000 dinners throughout the 2026 season! That’s 2,000 reasons to be grateful, and a whole lot of chicken that made its way through our doors.
But behind every dinner is a team of volunteers who make it all happen.
From the kitchen staff working hard to prepare those hot, delicious meals, to the food runners keeping everything moving, the car directors guiding traffic, and the payment takers greeting everyone with a smile, every role matters, and every volunteer makes a difference.
These dinners don’t happen because of one person. They happen because of a team that shows up, works together, and gives their time to support our fire company and our community.
And to everyone who came out and spent their Saturday afternoons cruising through our engine bays, picking up dinner, chatting with our volunteers, and supporting Station 80, we hope you know how much your continued support means to us.
You don’t just buy a chicken dinner. You help support the men and women who proudly serve this community.
To our volunteers: Thank you for your time, your hard work, and your dedication.
To our community: Thank you for your continued support, your smiles, your patience, and for making these events so special.
Until next season… keep the chicken cravings ready!
With gratitude,
Auxiliary of the Indian River Volunteer Fire Company
