A Life Saving Award and Unit Citations were awarded to members who responded to a life saving incident in 2013. Those plaques will be predominantly displayed in the fire station.
In addition to all of the awards given, the department received generous donations from the New Windsor Fire Department Auxiliary, the New Windsor Junior Fire Department, the New Windsor Lions Club and the Town of New Windsor. We would like to thank each of those organizations for their contributions.
In addition to the awards and donations the 2015 Officers of the New Windsor Fire Department and NWFD Auxiliary took their oath of office and were sworn in.
We would like to take a second to thank all of our members for all that they do day in and day out to keep the greater New Windsor community safe! |
