The department will be serving hamburgers at 6pm with the rally beginning at 7pm. It will be an excellent opportunity for all the members of the community to make an informed decision on the candidates running for public office in 2024.
With that, this edition of the report will come to a close. The Joaquin Volunteer Fire Department hopes everyone has a great and safe week ahead.
