"To say that I am honored to serve as the Chief for this incredible department would be a massive understatement; leading this dedicated team of men and women is truly the privilege of a lifetime. Day in and day out, regardless of the hour or the weather, they willingly place themselves between our community and harm's way, risking everything to protect their neighbors without ever expecting a single thing in return.

It is forged in the unwavering spirit of service that beats in the chest of every volunteer here, a bond of brotherhood and sisterhood that ensures when the alarm bells ring, we answer the call together."
