The Sister Bay/ Liberty Grove Firefighters Association packaged 266 Christmas Eve dinners for needy families Dec. 24, including 26 that went to Washington Island. The meal included ham, cheesy potatoes, green beans, side salad, roll and pie.

“We decided to undertake this challenge after we were involved in helping the churches with a similar program at Thanksgiving and learned that there was no Christmas meal being planned,” said Sister Bay/ Liberty Grove Fire Chief Chris Hecht.
