Bedford Fire Department Local 728

10/16/2026

Another successful year for the 2026 Bedford Firefighters Open is in the books! Thank you to everyone that came out to raise money for the community. We had a tremendous turnout and a ton of support throughout the day.

Again we would like to thank all of our sponsors for making this event possible and to our host Otis Park Golf Course for making this day smooth and memorable.

Everything raised on this single day event goes right back into the community supporting local nonprofits and organizations that serve our community day in and day out. This single day event also supports our Kids Christmas and other events throughout the City of Bedford throughout the year.

Looking forward to next year, see you all then!

We're now hours away from Registration Time for the 2026 Bedford Firefighters Open!!! It looks like we're going to have another great day of weather out at Otis Park Golf Course. Reminder to all golfers, Registration begins @ 0800 and Tee-Time @ 0900.

We've had several questions about the 50/50 Tickets. They will be available near the Registration table prior to Tee-Time. After that, some of our carts girls and members of Bedford Fire Department Local 728 will have some on hand as well. The drawing will be near the conclusion of tomorrow's event. (You DO NOT need to be present to win)

We just wanted to take a second to recognize all of our sponsors that make this event possible. We could not do this without all of this local support, year after year!

Huge shoutout to our Presenting Sponsor Lineal Contracting!

Busy this Friday??? Keep your friends and family fed with some Domino's Bedford pizza all while helping out the Mavryk King family.

This is who we will be supporting this year at the 2026 Bedford Firefighters Open during our 50/50 raffle on October 10th. Message us on here or get with ANY Local 728 member to purchase your tickets 1-$5 or 5-$20.

Please Share. This Friday, October 2nd, Domino's at 1605 M St in Bedford is hosting a Dine N' Donate in memory of Mavryk. At just 3 years old, Mavryk passed away after a tragic accident, and his family is now facing final expenses and financial needs while they grieve.

A portion of all sales, open to close, carryout or delivery, will help his family through this time. Use code GIVE for 25% off as a thank you, but no code is required.

We’re less than 2 weeks away from the 2026 Bedford Firefighters Open!

The teams are filled and we’re looking forward to seeing each and every one of you back again this year.

As you all know every year we do a 50/50 raffle to benefit a local family or organization. This year is no different, this year we will be donating to the Mavryk King family to assist them with expenses they have incurred with the loss of this brave young man.

We will have tickets available up until around an hour before the drawing on October 10th when our golfers come in for lunch.

Reach out to any Local 728 member for your chance to help us support this family.

25 years ago, so many lives were changed forever. May we Never Forget the sacrifices of those that chose to go in when they were needed most.

On this day, we remember all of the lives lost on that tragic day.
