Monday, August 23, 2004 – On September 14th, 2004, the St Lucia Fire
Service will officially celebrate “3 Decades of Preserving Life and Property
with Integrity and Excellence.” To commemorate the occasion, the Fire Service
has scheduled a series of community events from September 12 – 18, 2004.
Public Relations Officer of the St Lucia Fire Service, Hilton Oculien said that
the firemen have already begun activities to celebrate 30 Years of Service, such
as repainting pedestrian crossings in Soufriere, Micoud, Dennery and Gros Islet.
“As an Emergency Response Unit we are looking at the safety protocol that exists
and trying to enhance some of them, like giving the pedestrian (crossings) a
face lift. We are also targeting the elderly in the community and during the
week of activities, on the 15th to be exact, we will be doing two community
projects at elderly institutions.”
The 30th anniversary celebrations will also include other community related
events, such as a Church Service and Parade, various Sports Competitions, and
will culminate with a Formal Dinner and Awards Ceremony on September 18, 2004.
