From left, Jerry Doctor, St. Regis Volunteer Fire Department Chief; Shibu Arens, Sen. Tester’s Regional Director; and Frank Magee, West End Volunteer Fire Department Chief made the announcement of a grant for new firefighting gear both departments will share. Arens modeled what they will be receiving with the grant that Tester helped secure. Saturday evening continued with the First Annual Chili Cookoff having nine entries that had five judges sampling and deciding on who should take first place. That went to Susan Charles, with Louise Magee taking second, and third going to Donna Richter. Over 50 people braved a cold, snowy and windy evening to enjoy burgers, hot dogs, chili and celebrate the new equipment. (Photo by Bruce Charles)
