Thank you, Nassau Bay Fire Department!
THANK YOU, NASSAU BAY VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT!
The City of Nassau Bay would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to the members of the Nassau Bay Volunteer Fire Department.
“The Nassau Bay Volunteer Fire Department is a tremendous asset to our community,” said City Manager Jason Reynolds. “The department supports City operations during disasters, manages weekend Marine Operations from May through September, conducts invaluable outreach to our residents, and much more.
“The work the department does saves the City millions of dollars every year, and this would not be possible without the dedicated service of more than 35 active volunteers. We sincerely appreciate each and every member of our department!”
During the month of October, the Fire Department went the extra mile for the Nassau Bay community, visiting with groups of residents during National Night Out, conducting youth outreach as part of Fire Prevention Week, and conducting their annual Open House event on October 8.
“In a given month, the Department responds to an average of 35 calls, and those can be anything from EMS calls and fire alarms to car accidents and fires of all types,” Nassau Bay Fire Chief Tom George said. “You can have the best equipment in the world, but our volunteers are our best asset. Without them, and without the support of their families, we would not be able to do what we do.”
