    I just read you profile regarding past departments. Just to clear up a little misunderstanding there was never a Blue Water Bay FD, in fact before North Bay FCD became NBFCD it was called the Seminole VFD. I remember you being here as a Junior Firefighter as part of the program we tell you the history of the department. I'm happy to see that you continue in the fire service it is one of the best job you could every want or have. Take care and be safe.
