In 1975

In January of 1975, the department assumed running Tuesday night bingo after the American Legion post gave it up. The funds earned were used to purchase much needed equipment for the fire department and EVER. In the early 1980s, select bingo games were held to raise funds for the purchase of computers for the Edgewater Elementary School. The teachers assisted with the special games. The department also used their fund raising proceeds to sponsor baseball teams, football teams, swim teams, soccer teams, bowling teams, awards for high school teams and purchased uniforms for the New Smyrna Beach High School football team and the junior high school band.
