California Firefighters Memorial Ceremony Honoring the 16 Fallen Heroes
October 17, 2015

NCLFC is in attendance at the California Firefighters Memorial Ceremony Saturday, October 17, 2015. This year’s tribute honored the sixteen fallen heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our state. Their names were etched onto the polished limestone wall at the California Firefighters Memorial which honors the more than 1,200 individuals who gave their lives in the line of duty since California became a state. This impressive, thoughtful and time honored ceremony was attended by hundreds of firefighters from throughout the state of California and the U.S.

This special tribute, on the grounds of California’s State Capitol, honors not only the sacrifice of those that have been lost, but also the determination and commitment of those who fight on every day in service to their community.

LOCAL LAW AND FIRE REPRESENTATIVES’ PRESENTATIONS TO THE COUNCIL NOVEMBER 2014

Guns & Hoses Golf Tournament

The Guns and Hoses Golf Tournament is one of the NCLFC’s two yearly fundraising events held at the Alta Sierra Country Club in June.  Players come from the community at large as well as from law enforcement and fire agencies.  A trophy is awarded yearly to whichever agency foursome scores best!  Participants compete in a putting contest and closest to the hole contest for cash prizes. A hole in one contest is sponsored by Auburn Ford with the grand prize being a Ford vehicle.  Something participants look forward to every year is the “Guns and Hoses” golf hat given to each player. Each golf cart is equipped with squirt guns so that everyone can get a little wet!  Buffet lunch and dinner are served with prizes awarded during dinner to the winners. A silent auction is held for many prizes which are generously donated by the local merchants and the community.
