Last year they were able to acquire new radios with the funds from the fundraiser. In lieu of the annual Ball/BBQ they have put together a raffle for this year & would love your support. Tickets can be purchased at D&G, Markle's Warehouse, Cherry Creek Gear Shop, BS Central or any member of the Nashua Volunteer Fire Department. Drawing will be held Dec. 1st. Please call Fire Chief Joel Novak with any questions, 406-230-1319.
