Woodbury Fireman of the Year Woodbury Fireman of the Year is an award to honor a person that most exemplifies what a Woodbury fireman should be, by being professional, promoting the fire service and the departmental image above and beyond the rest of the membership. The membership of the fire department once a year nominates candidates for Fireman of the Year. This award is for the year long activities of the outstanding fireman. There have been some slow and dull years and no nominations were made by the membership.
Fire fighting is a team effort and sometimes it is the team that is outstanding.
In November at the Woodbury Fire Department's Annual Dinner Dance the Woodbury Fireman of the Year is announced and he is awarded a plaque. The following people have been honored as Fireman of the Year since the program began in 1987.
