Fifth District VFD is excited to share that we have been selected to benefit from Giant Food’s Community Bag Program, which makes it easy for customers to contribute to their local communities. For the month of April, 2023, whenever a $2.50 reusable Community Bag is purchased at the River Hill Giant Food located at 6050 Daybreak Circle, Clarksville, $1 will be donated to FDVFD. Please share the news with friends and family.

A fabulous turn out and the vehicles looked awesome. I was there to see you all pass by and made my grandsons day when one of the crew gave him a wave. I took a few images of the event featuring the vehicles, as soon as they are done will send them over, Well done to all. It was our 1st 4th July parade (from the UK) and we loved it, hoping to get back for next years. 🙂
