Many thanks to everyone who made the PFFO 48th General Convention in Oklahoma City a success -- from Oklahoma firefighter leaders and delegates to our sponsors and partners, elected officials and their staffs, our class instructors, and guests. Convention action and educational breakout sessions focused on helping our members deliver excellent service around Oklahoma, further strengthen the fire service and support firefighters and their families. In convention action, President Ricky Burns, 2nd District Vice President Les Leach, 4th District Vice President Sam Smith, and 6th District Vice President Derek Nusser were re-elected. Kyle Wilson was elected as Trustee, succeeding Trustee Emeritus Justin Hackworth. All were sworn in by Michael Glynn, IAFF District 11 Vice President. Thanks, Justin for your service to professional firefighters in Oklahoma! And thanks to PFFO administrator Michelle Hayer for your yearlong preparation for and work during the convention.
