❤️ HONORING OUR HOMETOWN HEROES ❤️
Every week on WFRE, we shine a spotlight on the incredible men and women who protect, serve, and make Frederick a better place to live. Our Hometown Heroes page, presented in partnership with Free Talk 930 WFMD and the Overhead Door Company of Frederick, is dedicated to recognizing local first responders and service members who go above and beyond every single day.
🚔 From police officers and deputies
🚒 To firefighters and rescue personnel
🚑 And all those working behind the scenes in emergency services
We share their stories, highlight their dedication, and bring you powerful interviews that give you a closer look at the people who keep our community safe and thriving.
Each week, you’ll meet new heroes, hear their journeys, and celebrate their commitment — whether it’s honoring award winners like Frederick County’s Deputy and Firefighter of the Year or sharing everyday acts of courage that make a real difference.
