📍 The Story Behind Bahama
Have you ever wondered how Bahama got its name?
The name "Bahama" is believed to have been formed from the first syllables of three local family names:
🔹 Ba – Ball
🔹 Ha – Harris
🔹 Ma – Mangum
Three families. One community.
For generations, Bahama has been built on neighbors helping neighbors, strong community ties, and a commitment to looking out for one another. Those same values continue today through the residents, businesses, churches, schools, and organizations that make Bahama such a special place to call home.
At Bahama Fire Protection District, we're proud to serve a community with such deep roots and a strong sense of connection.
