pLiz Tenney Jarvis has been coordinating a once-a-month home-cooked meal for the firefighters at the Purcellville Fire Station for the past three years. This came out of her position as the organizer for Community Outreach while involved with the Moms Club of Purcellville now Western Loudoun Parents Group.ppJarvis says the effort served two purposes. First it is a nice way to show community support for the firefighters and provide the crew with a home-cooked meal during their busy monthly meeting night and second involving kids in the preparation and delivery of the dinner provides a way for them to see how important it is to contribute to the town. Families sometimes paired up to prepare the meal that feeds up to twelve hungry firefighters said Jarvis.ppAs the program enters its fourth year Wendy Sellers will now be leading the efforts. This is a very personal undertaking for Wendy as her home was devastated by fire last February.
