May 4th is International Firefighters' Day.

International Firefighters’ Day is observed each year on the 4th of May.

Born out of a tragic loss of five firefighters in a wildfire in Victoria, Australia, it is a way to honor their lives and the sacrifice that firefighters are willing to make on a daily basis.

On this date you are invited to remember the past firefighters who have died while serving our community or dedicated their lives to protecting the safety of all.

At the same time, we can show our support and appreciation to the firefighters world wide who continue to protect their communities so well throughout the year.

Union Fire Company No. 1, Officers and Members are proud to serve our community!!
