Congratulations to Vigilant Hose Company's Dave Zentz on his recognition as the 2017 Frederick County Volunteer Firefighter of the Year. Dave was awarded today, along with other Frederick County Public Safety Partners during the Frederick County Chamber of Commerce Public Safety Awards in Brunswick.

Dave is an individual who has exceeded expectations in his few short years with the VHC. He has expanded his operational knowledge base by completing over 225 hours in courses the last year alone. In addition Dave serves on the VHC Board of Directors and steers several I.T. projects around the station. Dave was recognized as the VHC's 'Member of the Year' for 2017 at our Annual Banquet in January.

Congratulations Dave and THANK YOU for your continued support and contributions to the Vigilant Hose Company and indeed the greater Emmitsburg Community.
