We are so incredibly thank you to Betty’s Elves & little Pearl for donating 30 much needed blankets to our shelter. And as if that was not enough, they also donated kolaches and sweet treats to the employees and volunteers, too! We are SO incredibly grateful. THANK YOU and Merry Christmas!

Congratulations!

We have an exciting announcement! Please join us in congratulating Firefighter Ryan Keffer on two incredible milestones:

🎉 His One-Year Anniversary of dedicated service to the Bastrop community.
🎉 Being named the Bastrop Fire Department Firefighter of the Year!

This award is especially meaningful because it is voted on by his peers—the very crew members who work alongside him every day.

The votes for Ryan were overwhelmingly positive and paint a clear picture of his dedication. His colleagues highlighted his incredible work ethic, consistently positive attitude, and focus on service:
⭐️ Exceptional Initiative & Work Ethic: He was repeatedly praised as the "Hardest worker overall," always finding something to do, taking pride in his tasks, and taking initiative without needing to be asked.
⭐️ Team Player & Role Model: Peers noted his loyalty, dedication, and willingness to always go out of his way to help others and "make everyone’s life easier."
⭐️ Model Attitude: He was celebrated for his "great attitude and humility to learn," with comments stating he "never complains" and is "an example of what Bastrop Fire needs to strive for."

Thank you, Firefighter Keffer, for setting such a high standard in your rookie year! We are incredibly proud to have you on the team.
