Marking three-quarters of a century of service, the Godley Fire Department is gearing up to celebrate its 75th Anniversary with an event open to the community. As announced by the Godley Fire Department, the festive gathering will take place on Saturday, September 7th, at Station 1, situated at 200 S. Main St., running from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The celebration promises to be a moment for reflecting on the department's longstanding commitment to the community's safety.
An integral piece of the day is a BBQ lunch, offered complimentary for past and current members and their plus-ones. In addition, the event will be graced by the presence of the mayor and city council. As indicated by the fire department's post, while this part of the celebration is somewhat exclusive, the general public is not just welcome but "formally invited" to partake in festivities that will span several hours. Snacks and drinks will be available, serving as a token of gratitude for the community's unwavering support.
It's not every day you see a local institution hitting such a milestone.

The event is set to be more than just a casual meet-and-greet; it is an opportunity to connect with the men and women who have dedicated their lives to serving and protecting their neighbors.
