Flags Lowered for National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service

Spokane Mayor Nadine Woodward has ordered flags at all City  facilities to be lowered to half-staff to coincide with President Joseph  R. Biden’s directive that state and U.S. flags at

all state agency  facilities be lowered on Sunday, Oct. 9 for National Fallen Firefighters  Memorial Service.

“October 9 through October 15 is Fire  Prevention Week,” Woodward said. “We encourage all residents to embrace  the 2022 Fire Prevention Week theme, Fire won’t wait. Plan your

 escape.”

Visit the Spokane Fire Department’s website for some simple home fire escape planning tips. The City encourages  anyone with a flag outside of their home or business to join us in

memorializing fallen firefighters.
