Men's Christmas Gifts

Below are two samples for the men’s Christmas gifts. These plaques are engraved with the maltese cross, the Fireman Prayer, and your husband’s name & the year he started with the Fire Department.

1. Each board is different: different wood, different size, different shades (mostly stained neutral).
2. Because each board is different, there is no telling how yours will engrave. (see samples, one black, one brown.)
3. The prices are $25, $30, $35 (depending on size. The sample is $25)
4. The boards are at Stephanie's house. If you want to come pick out a board, call Stephanie at 590-8287. Otherwise, one will be picked for you (in your price range) when you order.
5. You may order from November 19th until Friday, November 27th at the Main Station.
6. Must be paid for by November 27th or it will not be ordered.

Call Stephanie with any questions (590-8287)

The order forms and sample for the Men's Christmas Gift is at the Main Station.

Orders and money need to be turned in by THIS Saturday.
