SILKWORTH, Pa. — The Lake Silkworth Volunteer Fire Department fired up the grill on Saturday for its chicken barbecue fundraiser in Luzerne County.

Folks stopped by the department in Lehman Township for a $!5 dinner made up of half a chicken, potatoes, vegetables, a roll, and dessert.

Organizers say in all, they sold about 500 chicken dinners this year.

"It's been a long day, but it's been very good, very good. The community is out supporting us in droves," said Chief Christopher Lathrop.

The fundraiser helps the volunteer fire department cover its operating costs here in Luzerne County.
