Firefighter Photo Fundraiser Starts This Week

The Odenton Volunteer Fire Company is seeking funds for operations and to help pay for a new pumper truck.

The Odenton Volunteer Fire Company is kicking off its annual photo fundraiser this month. 

The OVFC said representatives from Volunteer Fund Raising Dimensions will be coming door to door in the community to seek donations. Anyone who donates will receive a free complimentary 10 x 13 inch family portrait. 

The OVFC is always seeking donations, but the need is especially great this year, after the company purchased a new Pierce Arrow XT Pumper truck.
