elev815 delivers thank you baskets to first responders
Business volunteers delivered eight gift baskets to fire and police for South Beloit, Rockton, and Roscoe.
A few years ago, Friday, Oct. 28, was designated First Responders Day, a day to thank police, EMTs and fire fighters for their service to their communities.
This year, a group of elev815 volunteers delivered baskets full of candy and snacks, and, of course lots of coffee, to fire and police departments in the Stateline area.
The group visited police departments in South Beloit, Rockton, and Roscoe, and fire departments in Rockton, South Beloit, and the three Harlem-Roscoe fire stations (Willow Brook Road, Ralston Road in Machesney Park, and Main Street in Roscoe.)
