Kemah Fire Department

WELCOME HOME TO THE:

BEACH FAMILY

The Kemah Fire Department in coordination with the Kemah Police Dept. , CLEMC and many other Law Enforcement Agencies, participated in ABC's Extreme Makeover Home Edition for Larry and Melissa Beach. We were very proud to be a part of this huge joint effort to assist one of our own residents here in Kemah. The Beach family, which consists of 13 children will be enjoying a new home built by Blu Shields Construction. Thanks to all the volunteers, businesses, and Extreme personnel for all the hard work and donations given willingly to the Beach family. We wish them the very best!

Kemah Marine 1 leads the 48th annual parade

Marine 1 led the 48th Annual Christmas Boat Parade for the 6th year this past Saturday night. As you all know it was extremely foggy but the parade went on never the less. All the boats entered in the parade were judged on their lights and decorations, Marine 1 took 2nd place this year and we received an award at the awards brunch yesterday morning. I would like to thank Janny Looper, Steve Gann, Allison Dean, Kelly and Mark Head, David Gann, Dee McCarty, Courtney Dean, and Robert Suniga for helping decorate for and participating in the boat parade. I am very proud of Kemah Fire Department and our personnel, KFD have become a crowd favorite in every event in which we participate. Our image and community support has come a long way, we should all be proud and strive to continue the good work.

Kemah Fire Department's L-343 participated in the Fire Truck Show and Shine competition at the Ballunar Festival at Johnson Space Center October 24. The public voted on their favorite fire truck through out the day and L-343 took First Place. I really want to thank, Kelly and Mark Head, Janny Looper, Allison Dean, David Gann, Cole Vallatini, Steve Gann, Robert Suniga, Brandon Harris, David Buchanan, and Dee McCarty for helping to get M-1, L-343, Sq-1, and Sq-2 ready for and helping at the festival. The trophy is in the Communications Office, it is a traveling trophy so we keep it for year and we have to go back next year and win it back for another year. Again, THANKS to everyone who helped...
