The International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) advised that Erin Power's photo essay of the Local 341-supported nonprofit Camp Houston Fire won second place in the annual IAFF media awards, thanks to Jeff Caynon's nomination and camp cofounder Kim Phillips' help. He intends to donate the proceeds from the IAFF prize check of $250 to the burned children's fund in the next few days. Congratulations, Erin Powers!

Camp Houston Fire would like to say thank you to all our alumni and friends for their thoughts and prayers on the loss of our brothers and sister firefighters in HFD on Friday, May 31. Take today for reflection and time with your family and be thankful and peaceful. Our hearts are crushed and we will heal but we will never forget.

Hello 2013 Campers and volunteers and staff... it is with sincerest regret that camp has had to be cancelled for this year due to budgetary constraints from one of our partners that we discovered at the 11th hour. Check your email. We are still going to have an event for you on March 23. Email us at [email protected]

Look for letters in your mailbox, girls! We also have 4 girls from our HFD family coming to camp and that is always super nice... CHECK HERE OFTEN FOR UPDATES!!!

I would be remiss to say that the women and men that make Camp Houston Fire a success every year do it because they know firefighting takes a special kind of person and they are dedicated to finding that person. We couldn't do it without those people that believe in growing a strong future firefighter. Thanks!!
