Hometown Heroes:

A HISTORY OF THE HERMOSA BEACH FIRE DEPARTMENT

​

From 1907 to 2017, the members of the Hermosa Beach Fire Department safeguarded the City of Hermosa Beach. Starting out as a group of unpaid volunteers with a horse drawn cart, we will see how they grew to be a cutting edge department that pioneered new techniques in fire prevention and rescue.
