Company Newsletter

Summer 2011

Welcome to the Summer edition of the FDM Newsletter. I hope this edition finds all of our Policyholders and Agents well and enjoying a safe and relaxing summer.

E-Learning is coming! We all know how difficult it is to find time to expand our knowledge and take the classes and courses that will improve our safety and effectiveness and emergency responders. With that in mind, Fire Districts Mutual is developing courses that you can take right here on our web site. The convenience of being able to complete these classes and courses at your own pace, in the comfort and privacy of your home or the convenience of your firehouse makes this project a valuable addition to the Health and Safety Officer classes, the Injury Reduction Surveys and the outstanding service provided by our claims department. We hope to have our first classes up and running by January 1st.

Our 2010 Annual Report is completed and being mailed out in the next few days. You should receive your copy soon, but can also view the latest annual report right here on the web site. Once again we are pleased to report an exceptional year for Fire Districts Mutual and its subsidiaries. In 2010 we experienced the largest operating gain in company history, added 18% to Policyholders surplus and increased the net worth of the company to an all time high. Please review the report for the details.

We welcomed Mary Callahan to the company in May. Mary replaces Elena Solodow who decided to go back to school. Mary is doing a great job and I’m sure you will all enjoy working with her.

Joel Angeles has been promoted from Underwriting Assistant to Underwriter. Mary and Joel make excellent team for processing your new business quotes, policies and renewals. Feel free to call them with any questions or concerns.

June 1st was the last day for our Chief Operating Officer Lanny D. Strain. His invaluable leadership and guidance will be missed. Lanny is pursuing a career in general retail insurance in Florida. We wish Lanny and his wife, Mary Lou the very best in their future endeavors.

We hope to schedule a Health and Safety Officer training class on Long Island in September. Watch the web site for details. If you would like to schedule a Health and Safety Officer in your area, please contact Paul Johnson at Pjohnson7@gmail.com or (914) 329-1192.

Stay safe and watch this section of the web site for more news and updates.
