We’re working on highlighting the great work our members are doing both on and off duty through our social media accounts. The truth is, it’s tough for us to keep up with everything our members are involved in, and often we only hear about it long after the fact. We know we’re a humble bunch and not big on bragging, but it’s important for the public to see the incredible work being done by their firefighters.
Kenny Overton, who’s got a ton of experience and skills in social media and PR, will be helping us out with this. If you have any photos from a call or stories about what our members are doing outside of work, please reach out to Kenny via call/text 602-410-7467 or on his email KOverton@Local493.org - He’ll make sure these stories get out there so the community and our fellow members can see all the great stuff happening.
It’s crucial to get these stories out there, especially with the constant challenges we face from those who don’t fully understand our work and attacks we see against us. Help us show everyone that we have the best firefighters in the world!
Thanks for your help in spreading the word!
