Two More Firetrucks For San Pedro
posted (December 12, 2019)

If you watch the news with regularity, you will know that San Pedro has seen the most deadly fire disasters in Belize with multiple persons perishing in house fires over the years.  

Well, finally, there is some relief.  2 Firetrucks were donated today by the owners of Casa de la Caye Villas. 

At today's ceremony, Brad Campbell and Mark Bakken, who represented the donors, officially handed over the two fire trucks to a contingent of Government representatives including, NEMO Minister Edmond Castro, Area Rep., a shoeless Manuel Heredia Jr., Mayor Daniel Guerrero, Assistant Fire Chief Benisford Matura, and Gladstone Bucknor, the officer in charge of Ambergris Caye.

Well with these 2 donated today, plus the other 2 donated last year by the Rotary Club of Belize, and Digi, the hope is that an island's emergency response will be significantly bolstered to deal with future fires.
