SYRACUSE – The Syracuse Volunteer Fire Department is inviting other fire departments to participate in a fundraiser for Eric Fass.

The quilt will be available at a Sept. 12 fundraiser.

The fundraiser includes a 1 p.m. rural poker run, 4 p.m. Orchard Hill BBQ, silent auction and raffle.

Fire departments with T-shirts to donate are asked to call Christa Reisdorff by Aug. 17 at 402-269-7353.
