For Immediate Release,

It is with much consideration for the safety of our community and the members of the Town of Burlington Fire Department that the decision has been made to cancel our Annual Pancake Breakfast and Raffle for 2020.

Safety is what Emergency Services is all about. It is our belief we could not provide the safety of social distancing in this time of unknowns. Please understand that this issue was not taken lightly, and the pros and cons heavily weighed.

We thank you all for your past participation and generous support throughout the years. But again, due to the current unknown’s and the economic imbalance we could not conscientiously ask our wonderful community to donate to our department.

We will continue to proudly serve our community and others as we have always done. Please stay safe and strong. We will get through this together!

Sincerely,

Town of Burlington Fire Department
