ARCHIVE 2008 EVENTS

SUMMER/FALL 2008 Events:
Greeley Volunteer Fire & Rescue Celebrated their 50^th Anniversary
on Aug. 16, 2008 at the Firehouse on Route 434. This was their promo info their event.

Community-minded folks, like these shown in this photo, saw the need to form a company. They organized to provide for the safety of family, friends, and neighbors. We're honoring that great tradition they started.

The following charter officers shown in this photo attended the first Greeley Fire Dept. meeting ever held: from the left, seated, Bob Eckert, Fritz Dellert and Milton McMann; standing, Ed Mettler, Artie Schmidt, Bill Hansult, Rene Dotter, and Frank E. White. We do not have a group photo of other charter members who were unable to attend that first meeting.

Only one of the charter members in the photo is still with us, but two successive generations, children and grandchildren of charter members, continue to carry on the proud tradition of selfless service to the community started by the charter members.

Greeley Volunteer Fire & Rescue wish to thank all of their supporters and invite the public to share our historic celebration to honor the charter members.

Activities will included a 50^th Anniversary Parade, a Family Picnic, and fireworks. Check area lists of activities or our website for additional details as the date of the celebration approaches.
