Demanding Proper Support for the Sandridge Volunteer Fire Department

Provide the volunteers with needed equipment, safety gear, and the necessary funding to purchase standard supplies. Several requests to apply for grants have been denied by the Board. This HAS to stop. Our first responders should not ever be denied the option of applying for grants for necessary funding.

Why is this important?

The Sandridge Volunteer Fire Department serves a large area that is growing. It is in desperate need of a vehicle to transport its first responders to calls. Currently, all of their vehicles only sit 2-3 people which leaves many calls left shorthanded. Safety gear that has been denied has put the first responders serving our community in an unsafe manner. These men and women are already risking their lives to serve our community, that is more than enough. Nobody should be asked to risk their lives without proper safety gear. We have lost 2/3 of the Sandridge Volunteer Fire Department's manpower because of the poor decisions of the Sandridge Volunteer Department Board. This is a severe hazard to our community.
