WGFC at Fall Fest in New London
 
October 17, 2021
 

The West Grove Fire Company participated in the Christian Life Center's Fall Fest on Saturday. The CLC event included a car show, pumpkin pie eating contest and a variety of activities in support of raising funds for the Center's kids playground.

Antique 22 -- known as "Elsie" -- was displayed among nearly 40 restored, custom and antique cars, trucks and motorcycles. Elsie is always popular when out in the community and Antique 22 was awarded second place in the "people's choice" judging category.

Just behind Elsie, Engine 22-1 was on display. Many children climbed aboard for visits, and members of the community asked questions about the Fire Company and the fire truck.

A pumpkin pie eating contest was held, with volunteer firefighters Morgan Yingling and Zach Felker joining in the fun.
