Early Morning fire OCW D-1 Early morning fire on the "C". T-6 was dispatched along with E-7 on 2nd alarm to a fire

IT’S ON!!!! This is to help curb the anxiety that comes from not getting to go riding now that cooler temps
have set in. (for Florida, anyway) Gut check time!!!!
We will be meeting at TC’s in Navarre at 10:30am on Feb. 2nd.
The plan is to ride from Navarre over to Pirates Cove in Alabama. When we
get there we can get some “antifreeze” in our system for the ride back.
DRESS WARM!!! Layering is the key! Don’t forget your helmet.
Oh, and just for the record, Kenny Perkins and myself rode from Destin to Pensacola last week in 34* temps. Yep, it was
cold! Nope, I don’t have a windshield! Yep, it was cold. Oh, I said that already.
This is a sanctioned F&I St. 36 ride.

A message from the President, Shannon R. Stone
Shannon's term as president
ends this June.
Thanks to all the members for the continued support I received
during my two terms as president of Local 2601. I feel we have made great progress during that time and it could not have
been accomplished without the support of each member and the E-Board. It has been an honor to serve the men and women
of IAFF Local 2601.
ELECTIONS for a new President will be held in JUNE 2008. Anyone interested should
contact an E-Board member ASAP.
| ON THE JOB! |

"Sticker club"
Please remove all IAFF markings
from your vehicle when selling, trading-in, etc. The IAFF logo is universally known and respected and identifies both them
and their family members as part of an elite profession and connected to Organized Labor. IAFF decals and emblems should not be given or sold to any individuals or non-family members who are not IAFF members.
What you perceive to be a friendly gesture may be viewed by a police officer as illegal. Police in some states have interpreted
the displaying of an IAFF or fire department logo by individuals who are not firefighters or the immediate family member of
a firefighter as impersonating a firefighter, which is illegal in most states.
DO THE RIGHT THING. REMOVE IAFF DECALS WHEN DISPOSING
OF A MOTOR VEHICLE IN ANY WAY.
Have something to say? Suggestions? We want your input!
