In this week's WAVE - Broad Channel Vollies



The following excerpt is from Dan Guarino's column, Broad Channel Bits,  from this week's edition of the WAVE.


For more than 100 years the Broad Channel Vollies have come to the aid of anyone in need. Now the BCVFD can use the aid of anyone and everyone who can lend a hand.
Chief Dan McIntyre explains, this is “a call for volunteers for the BCVFD; we are in desperate need since many of our members are still displaced and living off the island. We are currently operating with 12 on island members; we need 20-25 members to meet our obligations.
Former members are especially welcome. NOW is the time to step up.
Anyone who can answer the phone is welcome.
Also our Junior Department is very active. All kids between 12 and 18 welcome. The Vollies Junior Department is part of Boy Scouts of America, Explorers program, Learning for Life. It’s recognized by all schools to meet community service requirements now required by Department of Education.”
Even if you can do a little it will mean a lot! Stop by the firehouse on Noel Road or call 718- 474-6888

  1. Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic
    however I'd figured I'd ask. Would you be interested in trading
    links or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa?
    My site goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I
    feel we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to
    send me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you!
    Great blog by the way!
