On January 31st, The Cattaraugus Seneca Fire held its 58th Annual Installation Dinner. A moment of silence was observed for the victims of the Washington, D.C., plane and helicopter crash.
The evening commenced with dinner, followed by the recognition of the newly elected officers and an awards ceremony. Congratulations to all of the individuals recognized for their contributions.
