On Thursday, September 26, 2024, Fain Signature Group and the Fain Family held an event to show appreciation to the agencies, municipalities, and individuals who responded to the Legado Fire back in April.
In the early morning hours of April 1, 2024, a fire broke out due to arson at the Legado Apartments under construction in Prescott Valley. The fire was successfully extinguished due to the quick response and coordination between Central Arizona Fire and Medical (CAFMA), Prescott Valley Police Department (PVPD), Prescott Fire Department (PFD), and numerous supporting agencies.
“That night, and in the weeks and months following, you showed what it truly means to care for each other and the community,” said Brad Fain at the Legado Appreciation event. “It wasn’t just about battling flames; it was about protecting lives that came as a result of building partnerships. The actions of CAFMA, Prescott Fire, Cottonwood Fire, and so many other agencies displayed the power of collaboration and dedication, reminding us how strong we are when we work together.”
At the appreciation event, Fain Signature Group recognized the individual agencies involved by gifting each organization with a commemorative display using bricks and wood salvaged from the fire.
The agencies recognized included:
- Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office
- Town of Prescott Valley
- Prescott Regional Communications Center
- Yavapai County Office of Emergency Management
- Prescott Valley Police Department
- Prescott Police Department
- Prescott Fire Department
- Central Arizona Fire and Medical Authority
- Cottonwood Fire Department
- Yavapai County Attorney’s Office
In response to the Legado Appreciation Event, the Prescott Police Department commented, “We extend our heartfelt thanks to Fain Signature Group for recognizing Prescott Regional Communications Center during an exceptional appreciation event… regarding the Legado Fire.”
To the Fain Family and Fain Signature Group, saying thank you simply wasn’t enough. Instead, they wanted to show their appreciation for every single person who made a difference on April 1st, and in the days that followed. “Your efforts will be remembered and serve as a beacon for how our community, and communities everywhere, can rise to any challenge if we plan from the beginning to work together,” Brad Fain concluded. “From the bottom of our hearts, we appreciate your courage, we appreciate your service, and we appreciate your unwavering commitment to keeping us all safe.”
