The ceremony begins at 10 a.m. at Fire Headquarters on Main Street in Watertown Square. All available WFD personnel will gather in front of the fire station and stand at attention as a fire bell is rung and the American Flag is lowered to half staff. There will be a minute of silence, followed by the Firefighters’ Prayer and the bell will ring once again.
