VIENNA, W.Va . (WTAP) – The Vienna Volunteer Fire Department held the 82nd Vienna Ice Cream Social today to help support all the VFD does.
Spencer Park and the Vienna Fire Department was packed with well over a thousand people who had come out for the social Friday afternoon.
Vienna Fire Chief Steve Scholl says all kinds of games for the kids were there, a live band for entertainment, and of course, cake and ice cream for everyone.
Vienna Mayor Chad Emrick says the social acts like a homecoming event for Vienna.
Scholl, who has been attending/putting together these socials for over 60 years, says the funds from tickets, hotdogs, and games will go to help purchase equipment that isn’t covered by the city, county or state.
