ACFD Seek Names for Planned Memorial

The Arkansas City Fire/EMS Department seeks help from the community with plans for a memorial outside the station, 115 S. D. St., to honor the retired firefighters who have served our community.

Generous donations have already been made to support the project, ensuring that these dedicated individuals are remembered.

The memorial will feature the names, ranks, and years of service of all retired Arkansas City firefighters, with a special tribute to Trevor Rusk, an Arkansas City firefighter who tragically lost his life in the line of duty in August 2024.

The Arkansas City Fire/EMS department is asking for help gathering the names, ranks, and years of service of retired firefighters to ensure that all those who have served are included. If you have information about a retired firefighter, please email Communication Director Shana Adkisson at sadkisson@arkansascityks.gov.
