🔥 Another successful MAFFC in the books… so what’s next for us? 🔥

The answer is easy.

The 3rd Annual 575 F.O.O.L.S. Firefighter Muster — July 25th, 2026 at Reformation Brewery - Canton

This day has quickly become one of our favorite traditions. It’s more than just competing. It’s about bringing firefighters together from all over, pushing each other, sharpening the craft, laughing hard, and making memories that stick long after the last event is over.

We’ll have both Explorer and Professional Firefighter divisions, so whether you’re brand new to the job or a seasoned veteran, there’s a place for you to jump in and be part of it.

Most importantly, it’s another chance to strengthen the brotherhood and continue building the culture we care so much about - training hard, loving the job, and passing the craft on to the next generation.

Grab your crew and come be part of it. We can’t wait to see everyone back out there.
