“I want to honor the Rowan County Rescue Squad on its 75th anniversary. Its volunteers and staff have protected and served our community since 1951.”
Official Congressional Record

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Rowan County Rescue Squad as we celebrate its 75th anniversary of protecting and serving the community. Since 1951, the rescue squad has answered the call for more than 140,000 residents who call Rowan County their home. While at its core the rescue squad is made up of brave volunteers, they also are joined by staff to help provide enhanced services of the highest quality to everyone in Rowan County. Over its first 75 years, they have always been there in times of emergency ready to protect and respond. No matter where, whether on our waterways or in our neighborhoods, they stand ready 24 hours a day. Their dedication reflects the very best of North Carolina and the spirit of service that strengthens our communities. North Carolina’s Sixth District is better because of their dedication. We thank the Rowan County Rescue Squad, and congratulate them on 75 years.
