Firemen pictured (from left) are James Morgan, safety officer; Barney Morgan, pumper; Jerry Prince, chief; Marc McGee; James McLamb, captain; and Allen Venable, lieutenant. OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY Calabash VFD To Show Off Pumper Calabash Volunteer Fire Department members will show off their new pumper truck at an open house Sunday, Sept. 4, from 1 p.m. until 4 u.m. The six-man freight liner, rr ade by American LaFrance, features a 1,000-gallon tai.k and can pump up to 1,250 gallons of water per minute. "This is a state-of-the-art, world-class pumper," said James Morgan, safety officer for Calabash VFD. Firefighters arc holding the open house so communi ty residents can see how their donations have helped the department improve its fire protection. The new pumper was purchased in order to maintain the district's fire rating, which is used to determine fire insurance rates. A new pumper was needed because the department's other pumper is 20 years old. Also at the open house. Calabash area residents will get to look over the department's new First Responders Vehicle. The vehicle is equipped with many of the same med ical supplies found on an ambulance and has been serv ing the community for abou' two months. First responders provide treatment and care until Calabash Volunteer E.M.S. or Brunswick County EMS. ambulances arrive. Calabash VFD has seven members who are certified Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and 10 other first responders Calabash is one of four fire departments in the coun ty providing the first responders service. The vehicle and equipment was purchased with money collected at periodic "bucket shakes " The fire department is plan ing several special event* to raise money needed to equip the new pumper. The first will be a yard sale Saturday, Sept. 17, at the fire station. Hours will be 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. The department is seeking donations of yard sale items. They can be dropped off at the fire station any day except Sunday from 9 a.m. until noon. Area residents also may call 579-9723 to arrange for another drop-off time or for large items to be picked up. Calabash VFD also will be conducting a raffle for a handmade quilt, which will be on display at the yard sale and also at some Calabash businesses. The drawing will be held in November.
