Bordelonville Fire Department Celebrates New Home

The Bordelonville Fire Department held a ribbon cutting and open house for its new Fire Department and Training Facility, marking a major step forward for the department and the community.

Police Jury Vice President Jacob Coco congratulated the department and thanked Fire Chief James Gaspard and all of the members for their dedication and commitment to serving the residents of Avoyelles Parish.

Coco, a fellow firefighter and former fire chief, said he understands the sacrifices and hard work that go into protecting the community.

“This new facility is a great investment in our first responders and the safety of Avoyelles Parish,” he said.

A special thank you was also given to Della Hebert for creating a beautiful plaque featuring the Firefighters Prayer, which was presented to Chief James Gaspard.

Coco congratulated everyone who helped make the project possible.
