On April 8th from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., the Fox River Grove Fire Protection District Firefighters will partner with Culver’s for a community fundraising event. During this time, firefighters will be on-site serving meals to guests, offering a unique opportunity for the community to connect with their local first responders.

15% of sales generated during the event will be donated to the Grove Firefighters Association to support its ongoing initiatives, training, and community outreach efforts.

Community members are encouraged to stop by, enjoy a meal, and help support the firefighters who proudly serve Fox River Grove.
