Join the Movement RecruitNY 2023

April 11, 2023 By Steve Evanitsky

Dear Community Members,

As part of the annual statewide initiative RecruitNY, the Bushnell’s Basin Fire Department is inviting you to meet your volunteer firefighters at Hitching Post Plaza on Friday, April 21, 2023. We will be there from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. (just look for the big red trucks).

This is a terrific opportunity to get to know your local firefighters and learn more about the important work they do in our community. You’ll have a chance to ask questions and find out how you can get involved in supporting our fire department.

Fill out an entry form while you’re there for a chance to win a free Pontillo’s pizza that will be delivered to you by hand in a firetruck.

We hope you can join us for this special event.
