Ratiboř

Our guys finished the end of the year with a hard training. They put on their emergency suits, put on their breathing apparatuses and had a good time at the firehouse. Once again, they showed great cooperation and smooth handling of all prepared obstacles, which made them even more convinced of their readiness for action.

As we do every year, we kicked off with our Annual General Meeting. It was held on January 12, 2019 under the leadership of SDH Mayor Miroslava Slováčková. There were 31 members of SDH Ratiboř. Among the guests we welcomed a representative from OSH Petr Vraj, from the municipal office Mayor Martin Žabčík, Vice-Mayor Michal Mrlina and Bc. Jiřina Sklenská.

At the arrival of the first frosts, we took up the work and prepared an ice playground at the fire station.

In February, we had the annual general meeting of the district, which this year was held at our place and was attended by 27 members.

February 24, 2019 was Josef Juráň's birthday. We celebrated his beautiful 80th anniversary with him on February 21, 2019 at the Ponorka Restaurant.

By the end of February we needed to use the money we won in the Volunteer Firefighter of the Year Survey. The funds were used to purchase walking uniforms with accessories, equipment for the competition team and a fog maker which we will use, for example, to simulate a smoky area when training with breathing equipment.

At the beginning of March Vojta Válek took part in the Iron Firefighter competition in Velké Karlovice. He won again an incredible first place in the junior category.

This year we will again organize social events to which we cordially invite you:

• May 3, 2019 - Vatry
• 15 June 2019 - Soptík's Day
• August 3, 2019 - 130th Anniversary of the Choir
