Friendship Fire buffs shine in Alexandria tradition
Steinem notes the Friendship Fire Assn of Alexandria founded by George Washington. The group values volunteers from towns with volunteer departments, offering coffee at fires and ice water in summer. Its diverse members include a corporation counselor, a doctor, a bakery manager, an electrical supplier, a dentist and a lens grinder. The term buff may derive from buffalo, linked to early fire chasers.
