Below is a list of upcoming events planned and news in reference to the Professional Fire Fighters of Greensboro.
*CAVINESS FAMILY FUNDRAISERS
On Saturday, November 5, from noon-10pm, Meadows Frozen Custard in Oak Ridge will be donating 50% of all proceeds to the Will Caviness Memorial Fund. Meadows is located at 2205-F Oak Ridge Rd.There is another fundraiser for the Caviness Family coming up, plans are being finalized. Updates will be posted
HABITAT FOR HUMANITY SPRINKLER PROJECT
Local 947 will be installing a sprinkler system in a single story Habitat Home on Monday, November 7 (A-Shift) starting at 9am. The home is located at 1518 Village Crest (near Summit and Textile). If you have any question please contact Joey McIntyre at 336-275-3044. We have not had much participation from the membership at-large on these worthwhile projects in the past. Most of the work has been done by a small handful of dedicated folks. If you have the time, please come out and participate so that this project can keep going.
CITY COUNCIL ELECTIONS
The Greensboro City Council elections are on Nov 8. We will be endorsing our candidates early in the coming week. We need folks to commit to place yard signs at polling stations, work the polls, and generally fill in the gaps for our endorsed candidates. If you have any time to spare for the Local this is a critical piece of work to ensure we elect a more employee-friendly council. There will be more information to come.
LOCAL 947 CHRISTMAS PARTY
The Christmas Party this year will be held on Saturday, Dec 10 at the Elks Club (2201 W. Cornwallis Dr.) We are still working out the details but we wanted to provide this information to the members so you can mark your calendars.
MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
For the remainder of the year, Local 947 has decided to waive the $12 initiation fee for all new members. If you need an Officer to come out to your station to sign folks up or provide more information please contact me.
