International Firefighters Day

Today, May 4th, is International Firefighters' Day! We salute our brothers and sisters who serve in the fire service whether it be as a career firefighter or as a volunteer firefighter. No doubt the camaraderie among firefighters is as strong as the camaraderie among law enforcement officers, emergency medical services providers, emergency management personnel and 911 dispatchers. You do a job that most would never consider performing and you do it extremely well.

We ask that you be safe as you respond to incidents of all types especially as we all deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks for your dedicated service and enjoy this special day. We won't make any jokes about y'all waiting for us to clear the scene for fire/medical if y'all will lay off the donut jokes...just for a day. We love you guys and girls more than you will ever know.
