GGCC Public Safety Awards Breakfast Slated for August 14th
The Gaithersburg-Germantown Chamber of Commerce will honor Upcounty police officers, special operations teams, firefighters and paramedics at their 20th Annual Public Safety Awards Breakfast.
The event will be held on Friday, August 14 from 7:30-10:30 a.m. at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds, Harvest Building, 16 Chestnut Street, Gaithersburg.
This year we will honor the county’s, National Institute of Standards and Technology Fire Department & the City of Gaithersburg’s finest men & women in following categories: Medal of Valor, Citation for Bravery, Distinguished Service Citation and Meritorious Service Citation.
This annual awards program provides the business community with an opportunity to publicly thank those who help maintain the quality of life in the Gaithersburg and Germantown area.
“This is one of the most important events we do each year. Our public safety personnel work very hard day in and day out to keep our community safe. The very least we can do is to honor them once a year,” said Marilyn Balcombe, GGCC Executive Director.
In 2014, over 225 people were in attendance as we honored 58 public safety officials from the Gaithersburg Police Department, Montgomery County Police 5th & 6th Districts, Montgomery County Fire & Rescue and the National Institute of Standard and Technology Fire Department.
We invite you to come and join us as we recognize the heroic deeds of our local law enforcement and fire-rescue workers. These men and women go above and beyond the call of duty to serve our local community and we want them to know we appreciate them and their hard work.
