🎉 Happy Birthday to Lt. Drake Tate! 🎉
Please help us wish a very happy birthday to Lt. Drake Tate! 🥳
Drake was hired in April of 2019 and quickly proved himself to be a dedicated and driven firefighter. He was promoted to Lieutenant in September of 2024 and now leads our Hazmat Tech program. Drake came to CFD with several years of firefighting experience with Jefferson FPD and has continued to run since coming to us.
He’s also our ace in the hole when it comes to fire prevention—one of his true passions. Whether he’s in the classroom, out in the community, or on the scene, Lt. Tate brings professionalism, positivity, and pride to the job every single day.
Enjoy your day, Lt. Tate—you’ve earned it! 🎂🔥👨🚒 #HappyBirthday #LtTate #CFDStrong #HazmatBoss #FirePreventionAce ... See MoreSee Less

Happy Birthday Rachel!
Today we celebrate Firefighter Neubauer's birthday. Rachel has been with CFD over a year now, finishing probation just a couple months ago. In her first year she accomplished going to fire academy for her Basic Operations firefighter certification, EMT certification, and Fire Instructor I to name just a few. Some might call her a true trailblazer or Barrack, whatever works.
Thank you Rachel for your dedication to our community, we wish you many more years! ... See MoreSee Less

If you've ever thought you have plenty of time to escape a fire, or keep telling yourself I'll buy a smoke detector next week. Give this a watch and hopefully you will get that smoke detector or call the Fire Department to put one up, or go over a plan with your family. Either way seconds matter!
