Dine To Donate At The Applebee's In Pennsville On 06-19-07

The Deepwater Fire Department and Pennsville Fire & Rescue went to the Applebee's in Pennsville on 06-19-07 at 1200 hrs. The departments were there to setup and display trucks for the Dine To Donate Fundraiser. Applebee's is a very neighborhood oriented business and was more than willing to help the fire departments. This day was also Applebee's 1 year anniversary. Applebee's donated 10% of all meal receipts that were accompanied by a pre-distributed flyer to the departments. Engine 7-1, Field Piece 7-4, Quint 5-6, and Field Piece 5-4 were on location until 2100 hours giving tours of the trucks, showing how the equipment works, and handing out fire prevention information. The event was a huge success and ended up being the largest Dine To Donate of any Applebee's on the East Coast. Click For Photos....
