Scout Island Adventure Challenge

Hi Fresno Fire Family,

I’m Helena Silva, Matt Silva’s wife.

My work holds an annual Adventure Challenge. It’s a race. The race is sort of a cross between “Survivor” and “The Amazing Race”. In a team of four you race 3 miles and encounter challenges and problems to solve. You’ll be navigating using a GPS traveling in and out of the San Joaquin River. It’s fun!

It’s at the Scout Island outdoor facility which is next to the Fig Garden Country Club. Attached is the registration form and flyer for our Scout Island Adventure Challenge adult race. There is a fee which is then applied to the same race being held for high school students the following weekend. It covers the cost for high schools so they can participate for free.

The theme this year is “Cast Away”. It may help to watch the movie beforehand, just so the race makes a little more sense.

I can be called or emailed if anyone has any questions.

2010 Firefighters Ball

Fresno Fire Family,

Mark your calendars … We are hosting the 2010 Firefighters Ball (co-sponsored by Local 753 & the Fire Chief's Foundation) on Saturday, March 27th at the Downtown Convention & Entertainment Center. The no-host social hour starts at 5pm, and the program/dinner begins at 6pm with live music from our own 5150 Band and dancing until midnight. We have twice the space and plan on having twice the fun! Up to 600 tickets will be sold (the last Ball sold out at 400). Tickets will be available at the Credit Union starting on Friday, February 12th. We will know exact ticket pricing by Monday evening (2/8), but they will be around $40 per person. Invitations will be mailed out within a week.

Department members have priority in purchasing tickets until March 8th. After that, members will still be able to purchase tickets, but sales will be opened up to others. Some have expressed that they would like to invite friends from other departments, friends, etc. However, this does not limit members from purchasing any number of tickets once they go on sale to include their friends or family members. But, it does need to be the member making the purchase before March 8th. Also, there will be a seating chart at the Credit Union so that as you purchase your tickets, you can select your desired seating location. There will be up to 60 tables, so get your tickets early.

Please join us in honoring our Retirees, celebrating our profession, and enjoying our friendships at the Party of the Year.

Children's Music Class

Hello Ladies!!

I had an opportunity to take my 10 month old to a class called Jam Bandwich last week. The instructor (Shelly Aguilar) was amazing. She had fun songs and props for the kiddos and teaches through structured play. She does a great job of focusing on what the students are interested in at that moment (which can change soo quickly). She will be new to Fresno and will be starting up her first 8 week session here in April. Her prices are VERY reasonable and its a great way to get out and interact with others (for kiddos and mommies alike!) Jax and I will be attending the first session and hope to see you there!
