November 12 is the Fire fighters casino night and Ball. The money raised is used for the Big Canoe Fire Department. In many rural communities Volunteer fire fighters make up much of departments. Big Canoe is no exception. As a Volunteer, I can tell you I train as hard as the paid guys. We put in 30 training hours a quarter and respond as needed. The Big Canoe fire Department also respond as part of a multi-county network.
So come to the Ball . Tickets are 75.00 each and we will sell out. You get 1,000 "dollars" in chips, 2 drinks and heavy hors dourves, as well as entertainment. At the end of the night you exchange your chips for tickest and a raffle with tons of prizes starts. There are some great giveaways . But if you cannot come think about making a contribution.
If you can , any donation from $5.00 up is greatly appreciated. All the proceeds go to helping us help folks. The address to send to
BCVFD INC
11564 Big Canoe
Jasper Ga 30143
Make checks out to Big Canoe Volunteer Fire Department or abbreviate it as BCVFD INC.
Please remember to put in the memo part of the check via ACTIVERAIN. If you are reading this blog and not an ActiveRain member use read ActiveRain blog in the memo field. The contributions are deductible. I want the accounting folks to tabulate this and we will do something nice both on the radio show and on line here to recognize those who helped. Thanks for your support
