We would like the thank all past and present members of the Junior Hose & Truck Company and anyone that has served in the fire service on International Firefighters' Day.
As May 4 is observed across the globe, we aak you to remember:
Honour the past.
Thank the present.
Inspire the future.
May 4, International Firefighters’ Day, is more than a date.
It is a shared global moment — a moment to pause:
• To remember and honour the lives of those who have passed.
It is a day that we stand united by a profound sense of remembrance and respect. This day provides us with space to reflect on courage, on service freely given without expectation, and on lives lost while protecting others. A life lived in service of others is never forgotten.
• To commemorate the courage and commitment of those who serve today.
A chance to recognise and thank firefighters who stand ready - between danger and the community. Their courage, commitment, and quiet strength protect us all.
• To educate and inspire those who will serve in the future.
Across generations and across nations, we educate and inspire those who will serve next, those who will step forward and who will train, serve, and protect. And those who will carry the legacy forward.
As May 4 is observed across the globe, remember:
Honour the past.
Thank the present.
Inspire the future.
This is not just a message for one day—
it is a responsibility we share, every day.
