What's New at IAFF 2800

Updated On: Dec 04, 2011 (20:05:00)

On November 22, 2011 L2800 members Justin Tirelli, Matthew Orloski and Amanda Murphy partnered up with the charity "Rebuilding Together" to help build a wheelchair ramp for a disabled single mother of 2. Despite the rain and mud, our brothers and sister spent all day installing deck boards with other volunteers from NOVA. No air tools here, just hammers and nails. It was a great experience and we are looking forward to doing it again.

There will be more opportunities for this kind of work in the coming year so if anyone is interested please let Lt. Justin Tirelli know. Current and retired members are welcome!!!! For more information, contact Lt. Justin Tirelli at justintirelli@gmail.com or 571-283-1116.

Urgent Request From IAFF

Updated On: Oct 18, 2011 (21:39:00)

Help is needed tomorrow, October 19 for a media event. The Vice-President of the United States will be holding a rally at the Russel Building in the Kennedy Caucus Room (SR325). The purpose of this event is to gain support for a portion of the jobs bill concerning public safety. The IAFF is requesting support from the locals in the Washington region to have a presence at the rally. The rally will take place at 2:15; they would like everyone there by 1:30. I will be coordinating the logistics with Tom McEachin of the IAFF. If you would like to participate, call me on my cell. They will be distributing T-Shirts for everyone to wear, and I understand there will be free food and drinks as well. Sorry about the short notice.

Thanks

Line of Duty Death Census

Posted On: Sep 30, 2011 (20:11:51)

Please see an important message from the Virginia Public Safety Foundation;

Follow the link to access the LODD survey form. http://www.vpsf.org/pub/LODD%20Census%20Form.pdf

All

As you know, VPSF is administering a census of all Virginia public safety agencies in order to compile a complete roster of Line of Duty Deaths in advance of construction of the Commonwealth Public Safety Memorial.

Census packets went out to all 1,350 agencies in early August, with a due-date of October 31, 2011. With one month to go, weve received responses from fewer than 150 agencies.

I need your help. Will you forward the attached LODD Census form to your membership, post it on your website, or otherwise publicize it to your constituency, so that we can ensure full participation in the census and a complete, accurate roster of names engraved on the Memorial?

New Shift Calender App

Posted On: Jul 01, 2011 (10:12:38)

Shift Calendar App Available for iPhone and Droid

March 9, 2011 The IAFF and Pro-Calendar have partnered to develop and release the most advanced App for fire fighters for scheduling and tracking critical job-related information.

This shift calendar and organizer helps you manage your shift schedule, track sick, trades, comp and vacation time, schedule trainings and take charge of all of your personal appointments, plus much more.

The IAFF Pro-Calendar App is also the only shift calendar App to include an exposure Incident log for quickly recording vital information related to occupational exposures -- a critical component when dealing with presumptive disease documentation.

Download a FREE 30-Day Trial Version today:
IAFF Pro-Calendar Android App
IAFF Pro-Calendar iPhone App

Our mobile apps are based on Pro-Calendar's popular 48-page pocket shift calendar/organizer, which retails for $15.

Available at $6.99 for a 12-month subscription, the IAFF Pro-Calendar app is a great value at more than 50 percent off the original Pro-Calendar pocket calendar/organizer. For less than half the price you get twice the value!

Proceeds benefit the IAFF Burn Foundation, Disaster Relief Fund, Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial, John P. Redmond Foundation and W.H. "Howie" McClennan Scholarship Fund.
