First responders cookout with the community

First responders in Glasgow were serving the community in more ways that one on Friday afternoon.

The Glasgow Police and Fire Departments, along with Barren-Metcalfe EMS and the Emergency Communications Center came together for the first-ever Cookout with a First Responder event.

Dozens of families attended the free event at Gorin Park in Glasgow. Many of those first responders were busy behind the grill cooking hamburgers and hot dogs for the community.

There were also several emergency vehicles on hand for the public to view. 

Due to the success and turnout at the event, organizers expect this cookout to become an annual tradition.
