California Firefighter Summer Games
Latest News
California Firefighter Summer Games will be back in San Diego for 2019, June 23-28. Hotel info will be posted at a later date.
Firefighters from #KernCounty recently participated in the California Firefighter Olympics in San Diego. Our Softball team, which always represents well, took home the silver medal this year! In 5 on 5 basketball, #KCFD and #BFD teamed up for the first time and took 4th overall. Solid Work!

AS YOU MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW, THE U.S. OLYMPIC COMMITTEE CAME AFTER US WITH A CEASE AND DESIST ORDER ON THE USE OF THE WORD "OLYMPICS" ALONG WITH THE LOGOS OF THE RINGS AND TORCH. SO THE NEW NAME FOR OUR COMPETITION WILL BE "CALIFORNIA FIREFIGHTER SUMMER GAMES" AND OUR NEW LOGO IS IN THE DESIGN PHASE.
THE WEB SITE WILL REMAIN THE SAME cfaa.org BUT REFLECT THE NECESSARY CHANGES. THANK YOU ALL FOR SUPPORTING THE SUMMER GAMES. #cafirefightersummergames
What about the world police and fire Olympics?
Well maybe if they call for help the traffic will be very heavy that day !!! This thing with the word " OLYMPICS " is getting out of hand with the OLYMPIC COMMITTEE !!! UNBELIEVABLE !!!

From (retired) John Laur.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR DEDICATION TO THE CFAA AND YOUR SPORT.
AS YOU PROBABLY KNOW BY NOW WE THE (CFAA) CAN NO LONGER USE THE NAME “OLYMPICS”, THE 5 RING LOGO OR THE OLYMPIC FLAME LOGO.
AS OF JULY 1,2018 THE CFAA WILL PRESENT THE “CALIFORNIA FIREFIGHTER SUMMER GAMES”.
A NEW LOGO AND MEDAL WILL BE COMING SOON. THE WEB SITE WILL STAY THE SAME (CFAA.ORG) BUT WILL REFLECT THE CHANGE TO “SUMMER GAMES”.
THIS YEAR WE HAD JUST OVER 1000 COMPETITORS IN 18 DIFFERENT SPORTS. ON TUESDAY EVENING WE SERVED 800 "FREE" MEALS TO THE COMPETITORS AND THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS (THAT’S ABOUT 3000-4000 TACOS).
THE CORN HOLE AND BEER PONG EVENTS WERE OUT OF CONTROL (WHAT A GREAT TIME).
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
