Fall is here! Bringing some crisp days and, occasionally, the surprisingly warm day reminiscent of summer. For me, the first day of Fall is the warning bell to finish up outdoor projects and start tucking the yard into bed. A call to organize the shed, clear the garden and dump the flower pots. There is a beautiful energy that comes with the changing seasons. Yes, I may need to dress a little warmer but the air is so fresh that working outside is more comfortable. Enjoy the nice days of autumn, and may they stretch into November (one can hope!).
Were you at the Fall Harvest Market on September 13th? Under the outdoor pavilion at Blake Hall, the Neebing Recreation Committee hosted a wonderful open-air market. NFRA was there too! We sold a great number of our 50/50 tickets, boosting the total more than $1000.
Thank you to all who stopped by.
Our table at the Market also featured information about the new NFRA Storefront, located on our website: www.neebingfirerescueassociation.com/shop
With our table beside NES’s table, we were able to obtain more information on what help NFRA can provide to make the new Decontamination Bay function. The result was a list of items, with a wide range of prices, that will be added to our Storefront shortly.
These items will be featured in the online Store to be ‘purchased’ for NES. You simply place an item in your basket, and check out. Before completing check out you will be asked to register on the site, this is a one-time thing, so we can keep your information secure.
After check out you will receive a charity tax receipt for totals of $20 or more.
No product will ship, purchases are donations to NFRA to fund the items needed.
It’s a new and easy way to give back to our community. You can be part of this new, much-needed build by ‘shopping’ for Neebing Emergency Services!
NFRA will buy the items for NES to use in the Decontamination Bay.
Check it out! You can be part of this historic addition to Neebing Emergency Services ability to help us all.
So…What is this new Decontamination Bay for, you may ask?
It will be used after each fire call-out or hazardous exposure of our Emergency Services Team. NES will be able to drop their dirty gear into the industrial washers and shower off the soot, smoke and chemicals from their skin and out of their hair. No longer having to bring the contaminants home with them. The shorter time they are exposed the healthier they should stay.
Your donations through the NFRA Storefront will make all the difference! We couldn’t do this without you!
NFRA Can Sorts are going well. Kris keeps us very busy with his collecting at both landfills.
To be notified of upcoming Sorts or other functions, and to join in the camaraderie, email nfraevents@gmail.com. We’ll let you know what’s happening! No pressure, promise 😊
As I write this, the September 50/50 Cash Raffle #3 draw total is close to $10,000! That means someone will walk away with almost $5000!! We’ll post the winner’s name as soon as we know. Good Luck!
December’s 50/50 Cash Raffle #4 is now LIVE!
Are you in?
The next draw will be on December 31st at 1pm, make sure you have your tickets prior to that day. Tickets will be selling fast for this one. It’s historically one of our biggest draws; many tickets being purchased for gifts. You could wrap up your shopping with one stop to our website!
