Fruitvale Fire Fighters Society A non-profit society officially created in Aug 2009. For media inquirers or further questions, please message the Fruitvale Fire Fighters Society.

For those of you who are not familiar with our organization, The Fruitvale Fire Fighters Society is a non-profit that was officially created in August 2009. Fruitvale Fire Fighter Society Members believe strongly in being active partners within the community we live in. Since August 2009, we have been actively fundraising and supporting individuals and families throughout the Beaver Valley who are

experiencing a crisis by donating close to $21,000 to help cover costs of such things as hotel, food, and transportation to Children’s Hospital in Vancouver or medical treatments in Kelowna or other medical facilities. Alternatively, we strive to support a variety of programs through personal members’ donations, employee volunteerism, and event sponsorships.

With Halloween upon us, we want to take this opportunity to remind everyone about being safe and to come down to the Fruitvale Fire Hall for a bonfire, hot chocolate, and hot dogs when you’re finished Trick-or-treating. We are looking forward to seeing all of those great costumes!

We want to give a big shoutout to Liberty Foods, ATCO Wood Products Ltd. and Village of Fruitvale for their donations and sponsorship of this event.

* Look both ways before crossing the street
* Always hold your child’s hand

* Drive especially slow in residential areas
* Don’t drink and drive
* Avoid distracted driving
