Light The Night, Grand Canyon NP
Grand Canyon National Park structural engines and an ambulance participated in the 2022 Light the Night event organized by the National Fallen Firefighter Memorial Foundation.
The National Fallen Firefighter Foundation on Light the Night:
“Every October, the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation sponsors the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend, the official national tribute to those firefighters who died in the line of duty during the previous year.
In 2017, the Foundation created Light the Night for Fallen Firefighters to recognize the 25th anniversary of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend. Since then, Light the Night for Fallen Firefighters has expanded to include fire departments and families lighting their homes in red.
As dusk turns to dark, landmarks, homes, fire service organizations, and businesses across the country will again glow in respect from October 2 – 9, 2022, to the fallen and their families.”
