On Sunday, May 4th, alongside the National Remembrance Day, it is also International Firefighters Day. On this day, fire departments worldwide pause to recognize the work that firefighters perform daily and the risks they take to contribute to public safety.
In honor of this day, on Sunday, May 4th, between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM, fire trucks with sirens and flashing lights will drive through the streets of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba. This will be done while taking into account the activities surrounding the National Remembrance Day.
The firefighting task is not easy. In incidents or dangers that citizens run away from, firefighters run towards. BKCN wants to thank the firefighters for serving and protecting the community 24/7.
When you see our heroes, take a moment to celebrate Firefighters Day with them and appreciate their work. Happy Firefighters Day!
