All good things come to an end.  The generator for the main fire station was orginally installed in 1998.  It has now died.  We think we got our money’s worth.

Old Generator

The problem is that the old generator powers the base radio for the station.  When the power is out we must rely on the firefighter’s handheld radios to hear dispatches from 911.  No power also means that the new HVAC system in the community room no longer works as a warm refuge in freezing weather or as a clean air center during smoky fires.  Thanks to a generous $5500 donation by the Coast Central Credit Union, we have the bulk of the funds needed to purchase a new generator.  But we need additional funds to cover the cost of the generator and installation by a certified professional to maintain the warranty.  Can you help?  We’d greatly appreciate your donation.   Thank you for helping by donating by check or online.
