This Christmas season, Cory and Dianne Osborne, the owners of Appomattox Outdoor and Equipment, graciously invited us (The Appomattox Volunteer Fire Department) and our neighboring fire departments to join us in hosting the mesmerizing Osborne Christmas light display and train ride tour. Many of you seized the opportunity to experience this enchanting spectacle.

The Appomattox Volunteer Fire Department (AVFD) expresses profound gratitude to all who supported us and our fellow VFDs during this event. Your generosity and community spirit hold immeasurable value for volunteer first responders.

A special thank you to Cory and Dianne Osborne and his family, as well as the Elder family, for their extraordinary efforts in ensuring the success of this event. Your dedication and commitment to giving back to the community are truly commendable. Thank you!
