Member Spotlight! ⚽

Local 437 member Vince and his wife are volunteering at the FIFA World Cup! They are helping es**rt teams to and from the locker rooms and the field, as well as assisting team kit staff with setup at the teams’ practice facilities.

It’s exciting that our region is hosting one of the world’s largest sporting events, and even more exciting to see our members playing a role in helping it run smoothly. We’re proud to see Vince and his wife representing our community and contributing behind the scenes to make the World Cup a success!

We’re out doorbelling today in downtown Bremerton in support of Proposition 1!

If you see us, don’t be a stranger. Come say hi! We’d love to chat and answer any questions you have about the levy or the fire department!

06/18/2026

Proposition 1 is on the ballot this August!

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing a series of videos explaining what’s included in the levy and how it would impact our community.

If approved, Proposition 1 would:

Increase staffing on our fire engines from 2 firefighters to 3 firefighters which would help us provide safer and more effective response.

Establish a sustainable funding source for future fire engine and ladder truck replacements.

Remodel Station 1 to better support staffing needs and keep pace with our growing call volume.

Be on the lookout for more videos as we take a closer look at each of these topics.

If you have questions, leave a comment below. And if you see us out and about in the community, come say hi!

Welcome to Local 437!

Please join the BFD in welcoming Firefighter/Paramedic Megan Norton to the Bremerton Fire Department!

Megan was born and raised in Kitsap County, growing up in Port Orchard and graduating from South Kitsap High School. She did leave to attend Western Washington University, where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology, but she came back!

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Megan worked as a barista at Starbucks, serving more than just coffee. During a time when many people felt isolated, she provided smiles, laughter, and meaningful human connection to those who needed it.

Knowing she wanted to pursue a career in pre-hospital emergency medicine, Megan began working with Olympic Ambulance in Bremerton while completing her Paramedic certification through the National Medical Education and Training Center. Following the completion of her paramedic training, Megan joined the Bremerton Fire Department, where she now begins the next chapter of her career serving the community she has always called home.

Outside of work, Megan enjoys spending time outdoors hiking, lifting weights, and making memories with friends and family. She also shares her home with her cat, Henry.

Megan says one of the things she loves most about Bremerton is the diversity of the community and the unique stories that brought people here. She is excited to serve those residents and become part of the department's proud tradition of service.

We are excited to have Megan on board and as part of the BFD family. Please join us in giving her a warm welcome!
