IN RECOGNITION OF THE LEMOORE VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT
______
HON. DAVID G. VALADAO
of california
in the house of representatives
Monday, July 19, 2021
Mr. VALADAO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the 100th anniversary of the Lemoore Volunteer Fire Department. The Lemoore Volunteer Fire Department is celebrating their 100th anniversary of service to the Central Valley community of Lemoore. Over the last one hundred years, this fire department has consisted of entirely community volunteers. The dedication, commitment, and service of these citizens have kept the community safe and informed.
In service to the Lemoore community, fire department members contribute hundreds of volunteer hours in service, training, and community involvement. They participate in the annual Lemoore Christmas Tree display, educational school presentations, and various community celebrations. In addition, the Lemoore Volunteer Fire Department has maintained their commitment to service throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in risk of their own health and safety.
The Lemoore Volunteer Fire Department members have worked hard to uphold the numerous traditions and sense of camaraderie that set the department apart. These continued traditions work to promote unity and loyalty throughout the Lemoore community.
Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues in the House of Representatives to join me in honoring the Lemoore Volunteer Fire Department on their 100th anniversary.
