BBQ and bands right now for Rio Dell Fire Dept. Weather is perfect
Weott doesn’t have a volunteer fire department.
Thank you. Removed.
Sad, but true.
Someone decided to try and charge them $750,000.00
for the building that they had been using.
That, unfortunately, put them under.
They were a dedicated group.
That is a very bad situation. Weott had a great VFD…
