Three members of the Enterprise Fire Department were recognized Thursday at a First Responders Appreciation Dinner hosted by the District Attorney’s office and First Methodist Church Enterprise.

The “Enterprise Fire Department Shift Excellence Award” was presented to one firefighter from each shift.  The recipients were nominated by their peers and recommended by their respective Battalion Chief.  Enterprise Fire Chief Christopher Davis joined District Attorney James Tarbox and Assistant District Attorney Jeremy Mitchell to present the commemorative plaque to each award recipient.

Addison Hudson was awarded the “C” Shift Excellence Award. Hudson started with EFD in August 2022 and was recognized for his ‘proactive approach to training and development.’
