Mama Mia, everyone Loves Pasta!

The Auxiliary volunteered to make the WFD February Business meeting something special by preparing and serving a delicious pasta dinner. The Auxiliary is very thankful for the generous donation by the Walworth Lion's Club for 1/2 of the ingredients used for the dinner.

Members of the Auxiliary prepared an abbondanza of garlic bread, spaghetti. Bolognese sauce, sausage sauce, and a fantastic salad bar with a huge antipasti salad and Italian tomato salad! Desert was the traditional chocolate birthday cake to celebrate members born in February.

The Auxiliary turnout was great, many hands make lite work as they say. Neighbors helping neighbors is still with us. Thanks to everyone that participated!

The Olympics in Walworth!

The Tri Department Auxiliary Dinner on July 9th had an Olympic theme. Cuisine from Greece, France, Germany and the USA were presented for members to sample during the meeting. Festivities started with a torch ceremony by young Fire Department members from Walworth, West Walworth, members stated that it was a great evening filled with games, camaraderie and great food. Overall, it was a Gold Medal evening with all attendees winning!

Auxiliary Presidents Evelyn Seaman (Walworth), Patti Marini (West Walworth), and Nancy Frederes (Lincoln) hope that the next Tri Department will be as successful.

Torch Carriers.

Our next generation Firefighters and supporters Alexia Van De Walle, (Walworth), Felicia Welker (West Walworth) and Kyle Serotta (Lincoln) kicked off the event by carrying the "Olympic" torch on one lap around the Fire House.

Remembering our Auxiliary Sister.

It is with great sadness that the Auxiliary has to say goodbye to our 50 year member Kay Hall. Pictured here, Kay is enjoying the Tea Party festivities for the newest 50 Year members held just last week.

Our hearts are heavy with her unexpected departure and look back fondly to all of her contributions to the Auxiliary over the years.

The Walworth Fire Department family thank Kay and her family for their service to the community. We are all keeping Kay and her family in our thoughts during their time of sorrow.

It's Tea Time!

The Auxiliary membership honored their three Golden Members, Kay Hall, Diane Hermanet, and Shirley Van De Walle, with a very special High Tea Party! The membership gathered at the Hall to celebrate their service to the community with fellowship, and conversation over a nice cup of tea!

Member Patti Phalen gave a very interesting presentation on the history of tea, guest Ms. Jesse shared her collection of tea pots and member Pat Corney provided members with a very special blend of tea.

All in all it was a very special grand afternoon!
