Chad Edmunds and Allison Hall came through a second year in a row and organized a fantastic appreciation/awards banquet at the Embassy Suites in Cary. There were approximately 150 people in attendance, including retirees and widowers, members and their guests, Town of Apex officials, and guests from neighboring departments. Everyone enjoyed the good food and good company.

Many thanks to C-shift who remained in-town, and to the Swift Creek Fire Department for providing a four-person crew for additional coverage so that our membership could enjoy this annual event.
