To help celebrate first responders, the Waverly branch of Tioga State Bank organized and held a First Responders event on Saturday, Nov. 16, at the Waverly Barton Fire District station.\u00a0Pictured, the group gathered for breakfast pizza and a photo opportunity. Provided photo.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nFirefighter and Waverly Barton Fire District Secretary Sherrie Cole helped organize the event and said that it was nice having the community show their support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe mayor was here, a member of the board of trustees, members of the public and some off-duty first responders. It was nice to see that people do care, especially since we are a volunteer department,\u201d said Cole. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beyond having the community reach out to show its support, Cole said it was nice to see so many people from different first responder divisions in a social setting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt gave us a chance to socialize beyond being on a scene and there isn\u2019t an accident or a fire going on,\u201d Cole said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She added that she thought the event was especially well attended in the morning when the breakfast pizza was available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe had the breakfast pizza ready for guys who just got off the midnight shift,\u201d Cole said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crawford added that the idea for the event was inspired by First Responders Day, Oct. 28. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSo I reached out to Sherrie and this was the best day we could come up with,\u201d Crawford said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crawford said that engaging the community beyond business hours is tantamount to the kind of community culture Tioga State Bank strives to establish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTioga State Bank is very focused on giving back to the community,\u201d Crawford said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With so many members of the district being active hunters and deer season opening on Saturday, Crawford said that she and Cole decided to have pizza available throughout the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt lets the guys who have been out there, but haven\u2019t gotten their deer yet, get something to eat before they decide to get back out there. A lot of guys are out there right now, my son and son-in-law just got a 10 pointer this morning,\u201d Cole said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
