Church To Hold McDavid Fire Department Appreciation Day
September 26, 2009
The McDavid Volunteer Fire Department will be honored for 25 plus years of service Sunday morning during a special service at Ray’s Chapel Baptist Church in Bogia.
The second annual appreciation service will be held at 11 a.m., and lunch will be served afterwards in the church fellowship hall. The public is invited to attend and express their appreciation for the service the volunteers provide to McDavid and surrounding communities.
The McDavid Volunteer Fire Department was incorporated in 1982 with a 1962 firetruck on loan from the Florida Division of Forestry. They purchased a 1948 Ford firetruck in 1983. The station was constructed on land purchased from what was then St. Regis Paper Company in 1984. Many more modern trucks and pieces of equipment were purchased over the years.
