The PV Fire District holds a fundraiser event on Sundays, which has been going on for many years,…read moreand has them a couple of times a year. I was happy to attend it for the first time, with a small fee upon entering which all depends on the age, etc. The offerings include Pancakes (plain & blueberry), French Toast, Sausage, Bacon, Coffee, Tea, Chocolate Milk, and Orange Juice. I opted for the plain pancake, which sure was tasty, and sausage and bacon for the sides. Should have gone for the French Toast, which sadly didn't catch my eyes - oh well... always next time. Several volunteers are serving, and providing food, and drinks, including refills, and more food for request. Simply raising your hand will get their attention. The event runs from 7 - 10:30 am, and there is no limit on how much food you want and the amount of time spent. Plenty of tables are provided. Eat, and make connections here. Also, most importantly, I thank the PV Fire Department for all they do.

The Walden Fire District - Station 1 has one of, if not the BEST social hall in Orange County. My…read morewife and I had our celebration this past weekend and we couldn't of been more happy with our experience at the venue. Sue is the social hall director and was great by all aspects. She thoroughly explained our rental agreement/payment plan (made sure we had copies of everything), was quick to answer our text messages when we had questions, provided us with all of the necessary supplemental documentation for our liquor license, and helped reassure us to not stress when we had issues with emptying out the hall the following day. She even went as far to come out the night of our event to coach our cleanup crew, making sure they did everything correctly after we left the reception. Highly recommend!

The town of Sleepy Hollow, New York has a wonderful gem to visit--its Sleepy Hollow Fire…read moreDepartment. If you love the nostalgia of fire trucks, Halloween, and/or the story of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow--this is the place to check out! Their truck is the coolest one we've ever seen--painted orange and black with flaming jack-o-lanterns and the Headless Horseman. The window over the front door is a beautiful stained glass rendition of the horseman himself. I teach English and this year taught a unit on Washington Irving's story, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. While in the actual location of the story, we had been looking for souvenirs and cool places to take photos. I saw a local fireman at a red light and asked if I could take a photo of his Sleepy a Hollow decal. I said, "You should sell t-shirts because I would buy one!" And he said,"We do! Let me meet you at the station." How lucky we were: they opened the doors to the garage and rolled out their amazing truck to share with our family--one of the firemen even gave us a tour and recited some of the famous local legend. Our kids were so excited! The t-shirts and hats are awesome, too! They have the Headless Horseman decal as well. Thank you for the gifted hat to my little boy, he was smiling ear-to-ear! This event was the highlight of our cross country trip from California and we will never forget! Thank you for giving us a memory we will never forget!!!

These firefighters save our lives and properties. Respect to them and SH police. I was annoyed…read moreafter I bought my home, I visited the house a few times before signing contracts, and moved in. Never HEARD anything unusual until we settled in. Then I would hear this loud horrendous horn. It would give me heart palpitations, it goes off at all times, then it made my heart break when it went off and scare my baby, awaken the baby while sleeping, the poor thing. If I rented, I would have moved out but since I am stuck financially, I have to bear it. But, when I hear it, I think, as long as it's not my house and as long as my family members are safe. But when I do finally get to move out of here, I WILL NEVER MISS THAT FIRE HORN.
