Showing WGFC Pride at the Hockessin July 4th Parade
 
July 8, 2024
 

West Grove Fire Company first responders were proud to participate in one of the area's best Fourth of July parades, participating in the Hockessin Parade on Thursday.

WGFC turned out with Antique 22 and Engine 22-1 in front of a very large crowd on a hot and humid July 4th. Our thanks to the Hockessin Fire Company for the post-parade lunch, to the parade committee for the invitation, and for the gracious applause for our units along the parade route.
