10:30AM – The Golden Fire Department invites all current and former members of the fire service to celebrate the many years of service by Captain Tom Young. On July 6, 1990, the GFD was dispatched to a hang glider crash on Lookout Mountain. Captain Tom Young responded to the call for help. During the incident, Tom was knocked off the mountain while trying to secure the hang glider during the rescue operations. Tom became a quadriplegic due to the extent of his injuries. Yet, he continued to serve his home community and the GFD for the last 29 years. Tom is responsible for media services for the fire department and assists with the broadcasting of GCO.tv Channel 8/880. He is an inspiration and leader amongst the GFD through his consistent and passionate volunteer efforts. This event will take place at Golden Fire Station #1 at 911 10th Street. John Akal at the Transcript wrote a great article about Tom in this week’s paper.
