Yep I might be from Fla but, I was raised in Colorado so I do know how to stay warm thanks to Columbia Sportswear and this parka.

Speaking of warmer weather, anyone going to FH World in San Diego? Flying in Tuesday afternoon and going to wander around the exhibit hall Wednesday and Thursday. Maybe take in the comedy show with Adam Ferrara.

Anyone getting phone calls today?

[BC79er]

Should be, decent set of lists. Mostly R&R on the SAFER side too, so should see more movement along those lines in the next couple of weeks. AFG is decently sized on quantity, not a huge dollar amount. Haven't seen/heard much on major regionals yet.

Pour me another, barkeep. They haven't even reduced my grant $$$ yet. Probably going to be awhile.

Got a SAFER grant today, but Ill stick around for the AFG.

Looks like 88 departments received awards this go round.....still waiting in the wings.

Congrats to all this weeks awardees and pass the rabbit's foot over!

Bartender give me a double and keep them coming till I fall off the stool! The suspense is killing me. Yet another week with no vehicles.

[LVFD301]

Got my safer today, I too will stick around for the AFG.

I wonder if the AFG is going to dump a plethera of vehicle grants at one time? I'm still waiting like everyone else and like everyone else is in dire need of a replacement. I keep checking my messages to see the dreaded DJ, but still in high hopes for an award!! Congrats to those who were granted awards today!

No movement on my water supply grant.

In the past years didn't they normally do vehicles early?

What I've been told, we may see some major awards in the near future, possible in the 200-300 range. They are going to try and play catch up now that they have their people back and that the paper apps have been reviewed. The other thing that is slowing them down is the SAM requirement. If you haven't done so by now, make sure that you are registered and your SAM account is up to date. This means all of your point of contacts and your financial information too.

Another Long Island please!

Hey Brian (bc79er) you are not the only one to jinx McNeill when you show. Been there this weekend teaching and they had their backsides hande too them last night. Had a close call on one them. Too bad I had just left and missed all the fun.

[Daped01]

another one please! still praying for turnout gear

[WJVaughn]

Ok Speed Week at Daytona is over. Time to return to reality and start hunting new funding...

[BC79er]

Did you get to run to the rodeo school like I did when I was up there? Everyone should go visit Mike, increases in call volume help the next year's set of grants.

[Daped01]

Another Please

[ktb9780]
