Bowie Volunteer Fire Department Chief J. Howard wanted to share the strong work of his Volunteers. It takes BVFD 11 evenings and approx 500 Volunteer hours to cover all 4 first due areas in Bowie for their annual Santa Run and Food Pantry collection.

Chief Howard had a special shout-out to BVFD Auxiliary Support Team Chair Amy Locker. Amy has served as the lead on their Food Drive for the Bowie Interfaith Food Pantry for over 15 years. Her team was able to collect 37 carts of donations this year.
