Reflecting on this year’s Seven Mile Casino 9/11 First Responder Challenge, South County EDC was proud to visit Chula Vista Fire Station 8, home of Engine 58, and join organizations across South County in honoring the first responders who serve our communities every day.

September 11 is a day of remembrance, reflection, and gratitude. We were honored to spend time with members of the Chula Vista Fire Department and personally thank them for their service, courage, and dedication to our community.

Thank you to everyone who helped bring South County together for this meaningful tradition — and especially to our first responders for all that you do.
