On September 24, 2009, Ville de Saint-Lazare has underlined in a great way the 25th anniversary of its Fire Department. Together with Meili Faille, Federal MP of Vaudreuil-Soulanges, Mr. Paul Carzoli, mayor, the Town Counsellors and the municipal employees, guests celebrated this event in a festive mood!

Exemplary Service Medal
Two firefighters, namely Assistant Director, Mr. Régent Marineau and the Capitaine Mr. Daniel Laplante were presented with an Exemplary Service Medal for their 20 years of service by Federal MP Meili Faille. Receiving such a distinction demonstrates exemplary conduct as well as long and exceptional service from those who are in a high risk profession.

Commemorative plaque – 25 years of service
Moreover, during this event, the Mayor and Counsellors honoured Mr. Louis-Georges Rozon for his 25th year in service as a part-time firefighter. In 2005, Mr. Rozon also received the Exemplary Service Medal.

Logo Unveiling
Although already in use for a little while, the new Fire Department logo was also unveiled. It now appears officially on emergency vehicles.

Mr. Régent Marineau, Assistant Director and Training Coordinator handed certificates to firefighters who have successfully completed fire prevention courses.
