Award Ceremony

 

Each year at the South Pend Oreille Fire and Rescue (SPOFR) annual awards dinner,

awards are presented for different categories. One of the awards is in recognition and acknowledgement of a Community Volunteer that gives of his/or her time and service to the Fire Department.

 

This year rather than presenting it to an individual, it was presented to the DLIA (which includes all its membership) for their generous contribution and support of their local volunteer Fire Department.

Diamond Lake

is one of many natural lakes of northeastern Washington. It lies in the southern part of Pend Oreille County, about 7 miles southwest of Newport. Diamond Lake appears to have been formed by a dam of sand and gravel washed out from a glacier, blocking the valley in which the lake is now found.
