Pine Mountain Fire Department Holds Successful BBQ

The Pine Mountain Fire Department held another successful BBQ on Saturday, May 29.

For nearly two decades, the department has held a BBQ on Memorial Day weekend to coincide with the holiday and the Masters Water Ski and Wakeboard tournament held at Callaway Gardens.

Under the direction and invaluable assistance of Terry Love, firefighters began cooking the pork butts on Friday evening and they slowly cooked until 7 a.m. Saturday when they were removed from the cooker.

Firefighters began serving the BBQ about 10:30 Saturday morning at Askew Park and by 2 p.m. the BBQ was sold out.

As in previous years, the Pine Mountain Fire Department did not charge for plates. Instead, the plates of BBQ were given away and donations were cheerfully accepted. And once again area residents and visitors were very, very generous.

The annual Memorial Day BBQ is the department’s largest fund-raiser of the year.

In addition to selling BBQ plates, Pine Mountain and Hopewell fire apparatus and other equipment was on display in the park.
