IHBVFD Firefighters welcomed classes from Ocean Breeze Elementary School to the fire station for Fire Prevention Week.

The members of the IHBVFD would like to thank all our friends and neighbors who braved the “No Name” Columbus Day weekend storm to visit the station. While the weather was rainy and windy the mood in the station and bays was upbeat. We had much fewer visitors than past years but still managed to serve over 250 hot dogs! Here are some pictures from this years event.

Firefighters from IHBVFD assisted Publix Employees with their Kid’s Fest Event on Saturday August 6, 2011. It was another Hot Florida Day with a heat index of 106 degrees. The firefighters were very thankful for the cold bottled water and bins of ice supplied by Publix. They were especially thankful for the two Sub Sandwich Rings given to us by Publix. One firefighter, as seen in the last photo, may have eaten a bit too much and had to lie down for a nap. We won’t mention Stephanie’s name as she may be embarrassed!

Firefighters from IHBVFD brought Truck 56 to Bealls to assist them with their Back to School Event. Everyone endured another very hot day. The event was cut short when severe thunderstorms rolled into the area forcing crews to retract the Aerial Ladder. It is not a good thing to be the tallest metal object in the area during a Florida Thunderstorm as you can see in the last picture!

The IHBVFD Women’s Auxiliary attended Firefighter appreciation night at the Brevard County Manatees baseball game. The ladies were gracious enough to invite their spouses and friends to the game as well. A good time was had by all as you can see in the pictures. One firefighter who had their picture taken with Manny the Manatee was wondering why Manny’s flipper was wet when he had his fin around her! Well he does reside in the water!!! Another is very comfortable with his manhood.
