| Thank You! |
Proceeds from all of our fundraisers benefit the Gouldsboro Volunteer Fire Company. In March of 2008, we put our new Engine into service to replace a 1976 Mack engine. You can see a picture on our apparatus page. It is with your continued support that we were able to do this so we can continue to serve you. We are 100% volunteer and there whenever you need us. We thank each of you for your support in everything we do.
