<p>All:</p>
<p>With the uptick in COVID + cases within the department and with
COVID + cases being seen with HPD and in dispatch, the command
staff has decided to postpone the Department Christmas party
scheduled for 12/21. Out of an abundance of caution for
department members and our retired members, we feel that it is not
the time to gather everyone together in a single indoor space. We
will re-schedule this party once the current spike in cases
subsides and it will be held in early 2022. If you have already
paid, we can hold it until the new date or contact Leah for a
refund. I am hoping at some point we can get back to normal!</p>
<p>Thanks:</p>
<p>Chief Hall</p>

All - If you have not RSVP to the Christmas party next Tuesday
December 21 please do so by TOMORROW. We will need a headcount for
the caterer. You can pay the $25 in Administration any time.
<br>
Please know that this is for department members only. As I recall
being told, it was a party given (way back before my time at HFD)
in lieu of Tuesday December training to get everyone together
before Christmas. If you have suggestions for next year, please
let the Administration office, Ryan Mouradian or Barry Tupper
know.
<br>
Be sure to wear your ugly Christmas sweater and there might be
some prizes for best crazy Christmas costume! Hope to see you
there, it will be nice to get everyone together for the holidays.
<br>
<br>
The menu will be:
<br>
Appetizer: cheese/crackers platter & wood fire smoked chicken
wings.
<br>
Garden salad
<br>
Entree: Smoked pulled pork with tangy carolina BBQ sauce
<br>
& Roasted wood fire chicken
<br>
Bacon macaroni & cheese & garlic mashed potatoes
<br>
Desserts
