Buy a brick for Hall Mountain VFD!
August 15, 2013
For 35 years, the men and women who have volunteered with the Hall Mountain Volunteer Fire Department have given of themselves, going out in all weather, at all times of day or night, to answer their neighbors calls for help. To keep that legacy alive, they now ask the community's help. In so doing, they're building a lasting legacy.

Fire Hall #1 at Porthill has served the department and the county well for years. Generations of volunteer firefighters learned the ropes and staged from there to answer the community's call, not only fires, but every imaginable incident that disrupt the lives of both people who live here and those passing through.

They've built a legacy to be proud of, and they're working to ensure it continues.

Fire Hall #1 is old, built for an era gone by. It's too small to house the new firefighting vehicles, or the gear and equipment developed to make them do all they do better, and more safely.

The venerable old station needs rebuilt to best serve the community, and the purchase of a brick will help.

The Mount Hall VFD is a department, not a district. It does all it does without the help of tax dollars. Hence the offer of something as simple as a brick.

These bricks aren't to become a building, but a memorial to make the building possible.

A "Wall of Honor," if you will, part of a display, a park, in which people can come, rest, and remember.

Each brick, be it four inches by eight or an eight inch square, will be inscribed with a name and a memory ... the name of a former fire fighter, a Hall Mountain dispatcher. A family member or teacher, an incident that should never be forgotten.

A small brick is $100, a large $185. Each brick sold will move Hall Mountain Fire a step into the future.
