The City of De Pere, Wisconsin

Service: Above & Beyond

The skilled members of De Pere Police Department and De Pere Fire Rescue are committed to the safety and well-being of those in our community. Their tireless and selfless work is done without a desire for recognition.

However, the "Beyond the Call” and “Outstanding Firefighter" wards are in place as a way to acknowledge the extraordinary service by individuals of these departments each year. Winners are honored by the De Pere Civic Clubs.
