NEFD FIRE CAMP 2025

An overwhelming thank you to all those who attended the NEFD Fire Camp last week. It was an awesome day of hands-on learning about fire safety, first aid, forestry preservation, and an inside view into the life of a Firefighter and the equipment they use.

It was a fun day not only for the attendees but for all of the volunteers who shared their time and knowledge.

A huge shout out to our partners:
