LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Fire Protection District earlier this month held a badge-pinning ceremony to honor new firefighters and those who had received promotions.
Participating in the April 13 event, held during the Lakeport Fire Board’s regular meeting, was new Lakeport Fire Chief Jeffrey Thomas, who joined the department at the start of this month.
Three firefighters were officially promoted to captain during the ceremony: Captain/Paramedic Odell Landers, Captain/Paramedic Jordan Mills and Captain/Paramedic Spencer Johnson.
Also in attendance was new Firefighter/EMT Sean Thomas, but new Firefighter/Paramedic Derek Reisbeck was not able to attend. Both were hired last year about the time the COVID-19 pandemic started.
