pdf NOTICE FOR CANDIDATES
HARRIS COUNTY EMERGENCY SERVICES DISTRICT NO. 28
(Ponderosa VFD Area)

Burn Ban Update 12/20/2011

 

Jax is barking orders at the recent recruit academy class 

 

We Need You - The Ponderosa FD seeks to develop and implement the Ponderosa Fire District Community Emergency Response Team (PFire-CERT).   PFire-CERT Facebook Page

We are asking for committed individuals to attend the first training session on January 25, 2012 from the following subdivisions; Inverness Forest, Northview, Willow West, North Forest, Westador, Ponderosa, Cypresswood and Cypressdale.

A Community Emergency Response Team is critical to our area in that emergency services may be stressed past the breaking point during disaster type situations. I believe we have the talent and the commitment within our fire district to create PFire-CERT, so I ask you to visit the Harris County CERT website for further information; www.harriscountycitizencorps.com and click on the CERT button.

We are planning our first training session on January 25, 2012 at Ponderosa FD Headquarters beginning at 6:30 pm.  There will be a total of 8 classes that last a maximum of three hours each.

Please contact me at fwindisch at ponderosavfd.org or 281-444-8465 if you are interested in serving on the team.

 




Jim Luplow – One of Our Heroes


Staff Sergeant Jim Luplow recently received the Department of the Navy, Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal for his outstanding actions on March 20, 2011 while serving in Afghanistan. Jim is a current Ponderosa FD member on leave who has been with us since 1995. He has served us as a Lieutenant and Captain at Station 63, and he is a Sergeant with the Houston Police Department. Jim is another example of great people who serve all of us. We expect to see him back with us in October of 2011 after he finishes his second tour “over there”, first in Iraq. You can read a previous article about Jim from our Winter 2008 Newsletter at http://www.ponderosavfd.org/news/2008/winter08-22961_PC-PonderosaVFD.pdf
