Want To Help With BINGO?

 June 1, 2021

CVFD is looking for folks to help with our weekly BINGO games.  We are planning to resume BINGO as soon as we can properly staff games.  The pandemic posed unprecedented challenges for the department, and BINGO was certainly affected.  But we can’t resume without folks willing to volunteer their time to help.  Can you help us?

Need an excuse to get out of the house?
Want to help raise money for your local volunteer fire department?
Enjoy meeting new people?

Colington Volunteer Fire Department is looking for folks to help with our BINGO fundraiser, for tasks such as:
Cashier, Callers, Concession and more.

Our BINGO volunteers are a huge help to the department! BINGO has provided much life saving equipment firefighters use everyday!  Games are every Wednesday evening, but you can choose how often you help. Whether you can help us every Wednesday or maybe just once or twice a month, we need YOU!

Call 252-441-6234 to discuss what is needed, and how you can help.

Why is our Ocean Rescue Supervisor standing in a large hole with a frustrated look on his face, you may ask?

👉Because someone decided to dig a massive hole on our beach and leave it unattended. 🤦‍♀️

I guess we need to say it a little louder for the people in the back, 📢 𝗗𝗜𝗚𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗛𝗢𝗟𝗘𝗦 𝗢𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗩𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗠 𝗨𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗗 𝗜𝗦 𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗟𝗬 𝗗𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗦!!! ⚠️❗️
⬇️
Why are they dangerous? We're glad you asked:

🦈Did you know that national statistics comparing sand hole collapses to shark attacks confirms that 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗽𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗮 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸. (𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘖𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘊𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰.)

🧑‍⚕️No one goes to the beach thinking that they will leave with a broken ankle or worse. Unattended holes can cause numerous injuries to other beach-goers.

🚑 Holes make it challenging for first responders to quickly get to an emergency on the beach. They can also cause damage to their vehicles.

🐢 Who doesn’t love cute little sea turtles?! Holes on the beach can trap hatchlings and/or their mother and cause fatal results.

⚠️⚠️⚠️
Digging holes in the sand can be a serious hazard. If you want to dig a hole on the beach, ONLY dig shallow holes and ALWAYS fill them in once you're finished. Help keep everyone on our beaches safe.
