I won't be on much tonight because I am going to attend a grant writing skill seminar tonight for the fire grants that are provided through FEMA. Would be nice to get one to help cover or pay for the rescue or some new turnout gear.

Good afternoon Neil, Shaun & jack. That grant money would be great. We have been investigating new fire/dive boat for us. I think new rescue might be cheaper than what we have seen. Anyway have a great day. Back to work. About 50% done with seawall. Not easy. But I can still stand up straight!

Ahhhhh,
Neil....I've written grant applications for our FD's up here and gotten 'em(don't just read what I type here).
I wrote(<isn't that impressive typing) one for a small VFD and won them $80k for a new tanker. They had to raise $50k but did in just short of a year.

Ever need help let me know. I've nothing better to do.

Evening folks.... just got home about 15 minutes ago from the class. I found out some interesting things and basically to fund a rescue through this particular grant would be tough at best. Also there are some things that I am not sure about the answers and if they are what I believe they are, a grant application from my department would not even make it out of the first round which is electronic scoring done by a computer.
