We are 5 DAYS away from our 1st Fundraiser of 2026 and we are off to a slow start.  I NEED MY COMMUNITY TO RALLY so we can have a good time while we raise funds to have another good time in May and the rest of the year.

Most importantly, it is about COMMUNITY BUILDING. WE are THANKFUL to this 8th Precinct community who has been giving, caring, and loving.  We welcome getting to know the firefighters and EMT's of Engine 54, Ladder 26.

Here's the stats so far: 
  • 4 Cooks
  • 8 General Admission
  • Donations
Food Donations so far:
  • Salad Greens & Cheese - Karen Moore
  • Crackers, sour cream, cheese, tortilla chips - Carol Jenkins
  • Sour cream, fritos - Jamy & Johnny Stecki 
What is needed? Salad dressings & cornbread

Some of you have let me know you can't make it and that is understandable.  See you at the next event in May.

Check out the Information Sheet link below and the other Announcements for the week.

If you are uncomfortable purchasing tickets online, call or text me at 313.318.2417 and we can make arrangements. 

See you Saturday!
