Attention Members,

IAFF Local 244 will be hosting the New Mexico Fire Muster and 5k on August 26, 2017 at Balloon Fiesta Park. This is the first annual event with the hopes of continuing it every year to get the fire community and public together for a great cause. The NM Fire Muster & 5K event was created to support and raise money for the IAFF Local 244 Survivor’s Fund and Membership Assistance Program. Unfortunately, the number of firefighters being diagnosed with cancer and other illnesses has risen and gratefully, the Survivor’s fund has been there to help. Now we need your help to continue to support and raise money to take care of these unfortunate circumstances!

There will be a 5K race along with a 1-mile family fun run in the morning, which are open to the public. Firefighters will be able to compete in a modified combat challenge with either a team of 3 or individually. This event will also feature live bands, food trucks, car/bike show, and a beer garden supplied by Desert Valley Brewery. Desert Valley Brewery will be revealing their new “244 Red”, which was custom created to raise money for the Survivor’s fund. This event is open to the public, and has no admission charge! We just ask that you make a donation at the event or on the website below.
