Hundreds of firefighters from across New York are set to compete Saturday, February 1 in the 20th annual Firefighter Winter Games at Greek Peak Resort in Cortland. The event provides an opportunity for firefighters to sharpen their skills through friendly competition while reinforcing teamwork and communication.
One of the key events is the hose relay, which focuses on speed and efficiency in fire response. Other competitions include a sled pull, tug-of-war, and broomball, all designed to promote camaraderie and physical endurance.
The games bring together firefighters from departments statewide, offering both training benefits and a chance to celebrate the dedication of those who serve their communities.
