The Knoxville Township Volunteer Fire Department will be offering a ribeye sandwich meal on Tuesday, August 9, from 5:00 pm- 8:00 pm at the Knoxville Township fire station, 102 W. Main Street in Knoxville. Assistant Fire Chief Kyle Thompson spoke with KNIA/KRLS News about the event.

“We usually do a pancake breakfast but we wanted to do something different this time. The funds from this event will go towards communications equipment, maintenance of current radios, spare batteries, and the purchase of new radios. This equipment is very important to the department and is vital in many different situations. These events are great because they are also like an open house as we have a new truck we purchased and a tanker that is only a couple years old, so people can come out and see these things and enjoy a good meal.”

The meal will include a ribeye sandwich, chips, and a bottle of water for $10.
