❤️ THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS! ❤️

The 43rd Annual Nekimi Volunteer Fire Department & First Responders Mini Mud Run was a huge success, and it wouldn’t have been possible without our incredible volunteers!

From setting up before the event, working the registration tables, cooking food, selling raffle tickets, helping on the track, parking cars, serving drinks, cleaning up afterward, and everything in between—you gave your time, energy, and smiles to make this event one our community will remember.

📸 These photos capture just a few of the amazing people who helped. If we didn’t get a picture of you, please know your hard work was just as important and deeply appreciated!

To every firefighter, first responder, family member, friend, and community volunteer who pitched in—THANK YOU! Your dedication, teamwork, and willingness to help are what make this event and our department so special.

We are truly grateful for each and every one of you. ❤️🚒
