Mashpee Firefighters attended the funeral of fallen Boston Firefighter Lt Edward Walsh on Wednesday April 2, 2014.  Lt Walsh and Firefighter Michael Kennedy lost their lives at a structure fire at 296 Beacon Street in Boston on March 26, 2014.  Nicole Hall, wife of Mashpee Firefighter James Hall, captured photographs of Lt Walsh’s funeral service.

On Wednesday, December 18th, Mashpee Firefighters Local 2519 conducted a community service project for a local family in need. A couple of weeks prior to the event, members of Local 2519 became aware of a Town of Mashpee resident in immediate need of a wheel chair ramp in order to access his home.

Daniel Bohnenberger had filed another prohibited practice charge on July 15, 2013 against the Mashpee Permanent Firefighters Association, Local 2519 and once again the Department of Labor Relations has dismissed the charge on December 11, 2013.  Probable cause was not found in this case and Local 2519 did not violate the law as was alleged in this case. Read the attached DLR ruling.

We would like to thank all the players, sponsors, and volunteers who came together to make The Mashpee Firefighters 3rd Annual Golf Tournament a huge success. Without all your help we would not have been able to raise nearly $10,000 for our Health and Wellness / Scholarship fund. We hope you will continue to support us in the future.
