Don't forget this Saturday @ River works is their event Mayhem on The River. Click on the "fire" tab to get us credit and a portion of the proceeds will be shared with Local 282. We have a great partnership with River works and they donate back to use every time we support them.
Only a few days left to be entered in for the early bird drawing of a smoker or a mini fridge. Payments can be sent via Venmo to @BFDLocal282
You can also stop in the union office at 500 Southside, or call one of the members listed to get them. Good Luck!
Yesterday was a nightmare. Three heroes gave their lives protecting Baltimore City. We will honor them, PJ, Kelsey, and Kenny, now and always, never forget.
The battle is not over. FF John McMaster remains hospitalized. He will make it thru, he is a fighter!
