(Versailles, Ind.) – Versailles Fire Rescue got some much-needed down time on Saturday evening.

Volunteer firefighters and their families came together for the annual Versailles Fire Family Picnic at the Versailles Fire Station.

The event featured a cookout and a bounce house for the kids.

So far this year, Versailles firefighters have responded to 436.
