The Canonsburg Volunteer Fire Department, this week, began collecting donations to aid victims of last weekend’s flooding that hit the West Alexander and the West Virginia panhandle area. The department is now asking that any donations be put on hold for the weekend. In an email sent by Fire Chief Tim Solobay, he said that they are putting a pause to the donations so that the department can assess exactly what is needed by the flood victims. He says the people are grateful for the donations. They are now at a point where they need to evaluate exactly what is needed. Solobay said that they will make an announcement when donations will resume.
