The Sheridan Fire Department captured first place in the Dunkirk Firefighter Hose Race this past Friday in front of the Dunkirk Boardwalk Marketplace. The event was sponsored by DFT Communications, National Grid, The Spot on the Lake and G & E Tents, Tables & Chairs. After the exciting kids’ hose race, Spike Dailey’s Irish Pub owner Aisling Heenan challenged the firefighters’ female guests to participate in an all-women hose race by giving an $1,000 donation to the Dunkirk Fire Department. Pictured is DaniRae Odebralski of Dunkirk with some of the Dunkirk firefighters as they aim the hose together toward the target.
