About Chan­dler Fire Honor Guard/ Pipes and Drums

The Chan­dler Fire Depart­ment Honor Guard was estab­lished in the sum­mer of 2001 for the pur­pose of rep­re­sent­ing the depart­ment at cer­e­monies and events that honor fire­fight­ers who have fallen in the line of duty or have passed away from other causes. The Honor Guard’s pri­mary duty is to rep­re­sent the depart­ment in a show of sol­i­dar­ity with fel­low fire­fight­ers by pay­ing respect for a fallen brother or sis­ter who is being buried with the honor and dig­nity deserved by the nation’s bravest heroes. The CFD Honor Guard may also attend com­mu­nity events for post­ing of the National Colors.

The Chan­dler Fire Depart­ment Pipes & Drums were formed in 2007 and per­formed pub­licly for the first time at the retire­ment of Chief Jim Rox­burgh in 2008. Since then, they have per­formed for a vari­ety of offi­cial func­tions. For more infor­ma­tion on the CFD Honor Guard or Pipes & Drums, call 480−782−2120 or visit http://chandleraz.gov.

    Hor­ri­ble event. Totally unpre­pared. Not worth the price of admis­sion. Will be call­ing man­age­ment to complain.
