Fannin Fire Department Gets New Truck

Fannin County Fire Department gets a new Ford F350 4WD vehicle and Fire Chief Larry Thomas described the truck as “much needed.”  Volunteers raised the funds to purchase the vehicle which will be used at Mineral Bluff at Fire Station #2.  Thomas told us the Fire Station #2 had one 4 wheel drive unit but this one is smaller and will make things easier.

Much needed equipment is generally purchased through the budget, however volunteers raised donations for this purchase.  Chief Larry Thomas has been Fire Chief with Fannin County for almost 15 years.  Thomas wanted to thank the Committee who worked so hard, the volunteers who worked equally hard, and all the folks who donated to raise the funds.

Please remember the BBQ Benefit – Live Music – November 14th 2015 11am – 3pm at The Community Hall in Epworth, Georgia $7 per ticket. Proceeds will go toward the purchase of the Fire/Rescue Truck for Fannin County Fire Department.  Sponsored by:  Tri-State Methodist Men.  Fannin Fire Department will be doing Car Seat Safety Check, Life Force will be there, and Sparky!
