Due to limited parking, attendees will need to park at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church. Shuttles will be able to take people to Station 6, per New Kent fire officials.

New Kent is not the only county to celebrate a new fire station. In June, the City of Richmond celebrated the grand opening of a newly renovated, state-of-the-art fire station on W. Cary Street.
