Fundraiser


We are currently selling Support Volunteer Firefighters magnets at $5.00 each. This is a successful fundraiser and we thank every one who has sold and has purchased the magnets.

NTVFD November 2007 Chief's Report

We responded to 1 mutual aid call for Springdale fire department, a house fire.

We responded to 1 fire call, a dryer, which we saved the house.

We responded to a mobile home fire that was vacant. We had 2 calls on this same place.

We responded to a barn fire. It was fully engulfed by the time we arrived. Springdale gave us mutual aid, and Forestry assisted.

We received a notice from the Water Utilities that instead of sending a report in every 3 months, we now have to send one in monthly.

We have had 4 hoses bust on scene this month. They were old, and we need new ones. If and when the $4500 grant comes though, we will purchase new ones.

Training is still every Thursday night a 6:30. December 20, there will be no training, but we will enjoy a Christmas Party.

Roger Hager from 9-1-1, says that in the near future, our pagers will not work. They will be going to Narrow Band frequency. At that time our pagers and radios will need to be replaced.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year!

Respectively submitted,
Austin Sandefur, Chief
