Last night Post 280 held their annual Commanders Dinner. This is the posts opportunity to share our achievements of the past year with our community partners - state legislators, members of council, our public safety officials, and Department leadership. Our thanks to Senator Christie Craig, Delegate Jay Leftwich, Commonwealths Attorney Matt Hamel, Chief Deputy Frankie Vann, Vice Mayor Debbie Ritter, Council members Daniel Whittaker and Jeff Jeffries, Police Chief Mark Solesky, and Fire Chief Sam Gulisano for their attendance. We would also like to thank Department Commander Mike Kimlick and Vice Commander Jay Krail for their presence.
