First National Bank matches customers’ donations in Fill the Boot fundraiser for local VFDs
On Tuesday morning, First National Bank presented checks to two local volunteer fire departments as part of a Fill the Boot fundraiser.
FNB customers donated money in a display set up in the bank’s lobby, and FNB matched the funds.
The fundraiser was held in conjunction with a project by County Judge Michael Roach to raise money to help area volunteer fire departments deal with high fuel costs this summer.
Another upcoming event will also raise money to help the VFDs — the 2022 Sloan Everett Pure Country Pedal Memorial Bike Ride is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 5. The Breckenridge Texan will have more details on the bike ride as soon as available.
