On Saturday, September 27th, Southern Oaks VFD held their annual fish fry.
The fire station was filled with residents from Freestone and Navarro counties as locals arrived ready to eat in support of their VFD.
Southern Oaks VFD serves an 114 square mile area spanning both counties, and hopes the money raised this year can help them purchase equipment to improve emergency care. Members of SOVFD are residents of the St. Elmo, Winkler and Midway communities along FM 416.

The all-volunteer organization serves all subdivisions, farms, ranches, businesses and residences on the southside of Richland Chambers Lake and provides mutual aid for other area departments including those in Fairfield, Streetman, and Corsicana.
For $8 dollars a plate, members of the VFD served fried catfish, sides and desserts. Smiles, laughter, and joy took over the station as community members turned out strong to support the men and women who sacrifice much to ensure fire and medical safety for our rural population.
