Why Wear Red
Six years ago we tragically lost the life of our fearless leader Chief Matthew Frantz to a heart attack. A short 14 months later we unfortunately lost the life of dedicated firefighter and true community hero Randy Hiti, also to a heart attack. Red symbolizes firefighting and heart health. Wear as much red as possible to support the memory of our two fallen brothers and to promote a heart-healthy community.
