It has come to our attention that an incident took place on the public beach adjacent to the Sandyport community whereby a thief snatched a purse belonging to a resident. We are asking residents to be extra vigilent when in public places and in particular the beach which is outside of our community and therefore not patrolled by our security personnel.
Our security department has recently undertaken special training from the Bahamas Fire Service and invested in a fire pump so that we can act as first responders to a fire emergency. We are encouraging residents to enlist as volunteer firefighters that can provide additional support to our security team in the event that we do experience a fire emergency.
If you are a resident that would be interested in enlisting, please email firefighters@sandyportmanagement.com with your details and we will contact you with further information.
*** UPDATE ***
Please make it known to us if you are interested in leading the voluntary firefighter efforts for the Association.
