Whereas the fire service members of Oregon have dedicated
themselves to the protection of life and property of their fellow
Oregonians, often at great risk to their own safety and
well-being; and
Whereas the fire service members of Oregon have continuously
supported efforts to elevate the standards and training of
firefighters and have been instrumental in increasing the
public's awareness of methods of fire prevention and suppression;
and
Whereas firefighting is one of the most hazardous professions
and requires extensive training, strength, endurance, courage and
a selfless concern for the safety of the citizens of Oregon; and
Whereas the contributions and sacrifices of valiant fire
service members often go unreported and are inadequately
recognized by the public; and
Whereas the work of fire service members deserves the attention
and gratitude of all individuals in Oregon; now, therefore,
Be It Resolved by the Legislative Assembly of the State of
Oregon:
That January 27 of each year is hereby recognized as Fire
Service Appreciation Day; and be it further
Resolved, That the Legislative Assembly encourages all citizens
of Oregon to recognize and honor our fire service members for
their efforts to keep our citizens safe from the ravages of fire.
