Professional Firefighters of Clackamas County
International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) - Local 1159
The Professional Firefighters Association of Clackamas County is an International Association of Fire Fighters AFL-CIO affiliate Local. Local 1159 represents over 335 firefighters and paramedics from Canby Fire District #62, Clackamas Fire District #1, Estacada Fire District #69, Gladstone Fire Department, Lake Oswego Fire Department, Molalla Fire District #73 and Sandy Fire District #72. Our mission is to ensure that all members are treated fairly and equally focusing on wages, hours, working conditions, retirement securities and safety. It is our goal to improve the standard of living for our members, families and communities we serve.
Four of our Local 1159 members recently participated in the ESGR Boss Lift, hosted by the Oregon Army National Guard’s 3rd Battalion, 116th Cavalry Regiment during their Annual Training at Orchard Combat Training Center in Idaho. Held on July 27, 2025, this event gave civilian employers a firsthand look at military life, including a CH-47 Chinook helicopter flight from Pendleton, Oregon, to the training site. Two of our firefighters attended in uniform as proud Guard members, while their two Company Officers joined in civilian attire to better understand how their team’s Guard service impacts their careers and our communities.
Participants toured training facilities, engaged with Soldiers and leadership, and learned more about the Guard’s dual state and federal mission. The Boss Lift program helps strengthen relationships between Guard units and civilian employers by showing how Guard members balance service and civilian careers. We are proud of our members who serve both Clackamas Fire and our nation, and grateful to ESGR and the National Guard for providing this opportunity. Their dedication makes our community stronger every day.
