PVVFD Annual Banquet
PVVFD members,
I wanted to give you some information regarding our annual banquet. I think we all understand that the last couple of months in our calendar year can be overwhelming.
The many activities and commitments can create a variety of issues. That is why in recent years we have held our annual banquet after the new year begins. We plan to do the same this time around.
The date for the PVVFD's annual banquet will be Saturday, January 11th, 2025. The event will again be held at our Station 1, with a start time of 1730 hours (5:30 pm).
We will have additional information in the future, but we wanted to give you plenty of advance notice so you can make plans to attend.
Thank you for your contributions to the PVVFD and those we serve.

Recruit 24-2 GRADUATION
In 2024 the PVVFD conducted two, full length recruit classes. That is a massive feat of both time, effort, dedication, and manpower for a volunteer department such as ours. The recruits have been dedicated to the program.
On October 25, 2024 at 1830 PVVFD Station 1
We will celebrate Recruit Class 24-2 accomplishments and recognize those that made this graduation possible, you, OUR people!
If you instructed, helped, or just wanted to show up to support the PVVFD and the new recruits, we would love to see you there on 10/25.
We would love to see a big turn-out of our folks to support the newest members. Dress code is: The best uniform you have issued.
Thanks,
Jack
