July Inservice Training Schedule

We have confirmed that Monday July 6 will be the FOF Charity Day (with emphasis on the Monument to the Fallen) at Applebee's Park during a 7:05 pm Lexington Legend's game.

It would be great if we could promote this to ALL firefighters and encourage them to come out with their families and make a HUGE showing! We could encourage FF to wear a firefighter t-shirt so they're easily recognized by other attendees at the game.

The FOF will be mentioned throughout the game. I will forward the Legends management information about FOF activities for their various announcements.

Would be great if we had a strong FF turnout for this event!

The Lexington Fraternal Order of Firefighters Monument to the Fallen Committee has secured booth space at this years 4thof July Festival to be held on Saturday, July 4th in downtown Lexington. The Committee is seeking volunteers to assist in sharing information with the community regarding the Monument, the FOF and its programs as well as sell commemorative Monument t-shirts. If you can spare two hours on the 4th, please consider helping out the FOF at the Monument booth.

If you would like to volunteer, please email darnall@eventstrategy.net or call 859-264-7822. The booth will be tented and have tables and chairs and all information regarding the Monument and FOF programs will be available for your reference.
