We had a wonderful time meeting many new people and greeting familiar faces at Taste of Downtown. What a fun day! A highlight for us was meeting the Sangamon County Rescue Squad K-9 dogs. Beautiful creatures and so important for many rescue operations. We are fortunate here in Sangamon County to be able to rely on the resources of the Rescue Squad.
