Our 3rd Annual Operation Secret Santa was a success! Your Moline Firefighters Local 581 sponsored 20 kids throughout the Moline School's to help make their Christmas morning a little more special. As always thank you to the staff at the Moline elementary schools for helping us ensure that this tradition continues! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Mandatory OT isn’t toughness. It’s a slow drain on your health, your family, and the job you came to love. Call volume climbs, staffing drops, and we carry the weight. There’s a better way, and other departments are proving it.

This month we had Matthew DeSmyter show up to our Union meeting. Matt went over his upbringing and his vision for the Rock Island County Sheriff's Department. Matt is not only an true Leader, but is an innovator as well! We are excited to announce that Matt has our vote and endorsement! If you stand with the Moline Firefighters you should stand with Matt DeSmyter this coming March!
