safety: Why I love living in Carova: The community
- 02/10/13 08:34 PM
One of the wonderful things about Living is Carova, NC is the sense of community. One of the places easiest to see that is at our Fire Department. Each month dozens of unpaid volunteers come to get training so that we are ready when the real calls come in. Some part timers drive over 6 hours just to be a part of this. This week-end the training was on safety & rescue. Watch as these unpaid volunteers practice getting into their protective gear and attempt a rescue into a burning building.

safety: 811: The Number To Call For A Different Situation
- 08/10/10 11:13 PM
Since today is August 11 (8-11 day), I thought I would share a different phone number the is useful in North Carolina. It is 811, and it is an important number to call before digging across our state! You should call 811 before any digging project - large or small.
