Local Union wins contest

       White River Township firefighters, representing Union Local 4252, participated in the Best Pork Tenderloin in Indiana contest Friday night at the Public Safety rally held at the Wayne Township Fire Department Training Center.  The public safety rally was a fund raiser for Mitch Daniels, candidate for Governor of Indiana.  The contest consisted of two categories, amateur and professional.  White River Township Fire Department Local 4252 was entered into the amateur category.  Three firefighters, Jory Cox, Tony Slusher, and Josh Justice (pictured below) were the representative chefs for Local 4252.  The contest was being judged by several celebrity judges which included Cheri Daniels, Mitch Daniels wife.  The group went on to win first place, received a large trophy, and then had their photo taken with Mitch Daniels. The trophy will be placed at the White River Township Fire Department Headquarters in the trophy case to be displayed for the public and the department.  The judges subsequently made comments later that the White River tenderloins were the best overall!
