Doylestown Fire Co. Receives Generous Donation from Poco's

Poco's Restaurant owner Wayne Cauble presents Doylestown Fire Company president Bill Cope and Deputy Chief Ed Truman with a check for $4,226.

The donation was the proceeds of a fundraiser held at the restaurant on 9/11/11, in honor of the work of Doylestown firefighters on the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

Cauble said that $1,356 of the donation was from cash donations by customers that evening at the Doylestown landmark, and $2,870 was the net profit for the night from sales at the resaurant and bar.

The members of Doylestown Fire Company are very appreciative of the generosity and efforts of Wayne Cauble, his staff and the customers that evening.

Members of Doylestown Fire Company No. 1 have responded to more than 400 emergency calls in 2011, and in 2010, recorded more than 15,000 hours of volunteer service to the Doylestown and Central Bucks area.

The company has been an all-volunteer organization since 1879.
