What: The Lake County Fire Department will name and dedicate Engine #91 in honor of retired Chief Randy Brasher. He was a fire chief for the city of Mascotte and instrumental in elevating the department from a volunteer service to a fully career department before the station contracted with LCFR. He was also responsible for implementing Advanced Life Support in the department. The engine will be named after him in honor of his dedication to his community. 

When: May 15 at 3:00 p.m.

Where: Station 91 746 Albrook St, Mascotte, FL. 34753 

Who: Chief Jim Dickerson, Fire Chief of Lake County Fire Rescue, Commissioner Kirby Smith, Chairman of the Lake County Board of County Commissioners, and Chief David Kilbury, Lake County Public Safety Director, will speak during the ceremony. Chief Randy Brasher will be in attendance along with several members of his family. Any interviews with Chief Brasher and the family would be at their discretion. 

Media: No questions will be taken during the ceremony, but there is an opportunity for interviews at the station after the ceremony concludes. RSVPs are not required, but are encouraged so that we can stage an area if needed. Journalist should arrive no later than 2:45 p.m. to ensure enough time for set up before the event begins at 3:00 p.m.
