Mission
Every day, Onslow County’s first responders run toward danger so the rest of us do not have to.
Law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, dispatchers, rescue personnel, and emergency management professionals serve around the clock — often without recognition.
First Responders Appreciation Day is our opportunity to say thank you — simply, directly, and with a hot meal.
OCRMC is proud to host this event and stand alongside the professionals who protect and serve our community.
Free Meal Service
Hamburgers • Hot Dogs • Chips • Drinks
On-site meals and to-go boxes will be available for first responders and public safety personnel. First responders on duty are welcome to stop by for a quick pickup.
