"I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people." --Mahatma Gandhi

Please check out our Special Awards section, and learn about some of our members and associates who we believe are outstanding role models. We have named perpetual awards after Chief Robbie Cassou of Quincy Fire Protection District, and Steve Tolen for his leadership in Emergency Medical Services. Both of them are living examples of outstanding leaders is our emergency response systems in Plumas County. We will be expanding the section over time to include other award winners and fire chiefs who served and retired.
