Appreciation is extended to Walmart #2117 for recently awarding our local Los Banos Volunteer Fire Department with a $1,000 grant. The Fire Department currently educates all school age children in our community, as well as their families with skills and knowledge they need to know to create safer homes and communities. Elementary students visit the Fire Station for Fire Safety classes throughout the year. The goal of the Department is to educate the children on how to be fire safe and the proper evacuation methods in the event that they experience a fire in their home. With the support of Walmart, we have been able to continue to provide this service by purchasing fire prevention materials and handouts. Thank you to Mike Buchta, Store Manager, and the entire staff at Walmart for their continued support!
