The Southern Door Fire Department began work last year to revive the annual parade and picnic in the Village of Forestville. Member Kim Starr says they don’t know if the COVID-19 cloud will have passed by the end of July, but the hope is for everything to happen as planned. It has been over a decade since Southern Door Fire last had the event, and Starr says area residents have missed it.
The department is also celebrating its 40th year and selling merchandise to commemorate the anniversary. Proceeds from both efforts will be used to purchase a new Jaws of Life. Southern Door Fire encourages everyone to take part in the parade. The event is scheduled for Saturday, July 25th. Any changes will be announced at the Southern Door Fire Department Facebook page.
