Winchester Office Sponsors Concern Hotline’s FryDay Fish Fry

On September 6, 2024, the Winchester office carried out a longstanding tradition of helping local organizations. It sponsored Concern Hotline’s FryDay Fish Fry for the twenty fifth year in a row. This year, the office donated propane for thirteen large fryers as well as sponsored the event through a monetary donation.

The Winchester office began supporting this event over two decades ago when the location was under previous management. Each manager since, has carried on the tradition of sponsoring this event. Carly Earhart, the Field Operations Manager of the Winchester location, said that her coworkers look forward to helping out with this event for months in advance and helped her see the importance of supporting Concern Hotline and the fish fry. “For seven months, I kept getting asked about this fish fry and ensuring I would continue to sponsor it. A month prior to the event, I understood the importance of the event and our tenure as a sponsor. Our lead tech who has been with us for thirty-six years, set the original tanks for the first fish fry and has continued to do so every year since,” said Earhart.

Concern Hotline & FryDay Fish Fry

Concern Hotline is a Winchester, VA listening and crisis intervention hotline. Hotline volunteers answer calls from people during their darkest times. The FryDay Fish Fry is a major fundraising event for the hotline. Without it, Concern Hotline may not be able to operate the hotline or train its volunteers to help others in need.

The FryDay Fish Fry draws in over one thousand people and is held at the local fairgrounds. In addition to food, there was local music, an inflatable obstacle course and yard games.

Tradition Matters

As you can see, the Winchester office is a dedicated, long-term sponsor of Concern Hotline and this important fundraising event. With ties to the event many years, we are proud that this office continues to support charitable organizations within its community. Well done, Winchester!
