Fairfax Aquires 3 New Firefighters

[HayesFXFD17]

After completing the 160 hour Firefighter One course spanning almost 12 months, I would like to congratulate Firefighters Karl Lashomb, Jesse Sweet and Patrick Bessette.  We now have three more fully certified firefighters having moved from the rank of Probationary to Firefighter. 

As our department continues to mature and keep pace with the rapidly changing demands of the job we are fortunate to have such dedicated young volunteers contributing to the overall positive growth of the department.  It is difficult for most as we all work our 40+ hour a week jobs, family duties, personal time and yet still try to make time to keep up with training requirements as mandated and our ever increasing call volume. 

Again congratulations to our new firefighters and thanks you.

Justin,

If you think these 3 new firefighters will be around this coming Tuesday night, would be glad to stop by after mass around 7:30 and get a photo of them to add to your announcement.
