Richmond Hill Fire Department's Operation Presents Under the Tree

Every year, the Richmond Hill Fire Department (RHFD) does more than just respond to emergencies—they ignite the spirit of giving in our community. Through Operation Presents Under the Tree, RHFD helps local families in need, ensuring that children experience the joy of the holiday season and beyond. This initiative provides gifts, essentials, and support to families who could use a helping hand, reminding us all what community truly means.

To keep this heartwarming tradition alive, RHFD hosts its biggest annual fundraiser—the 8th Annual Spring Fling! Set for Saturday, April 18, 2026, from 10 AM to 4 PM at J.F. Gregory Park, this all-day festival is packed with family fun, delicious eats, live entertainment, and exciting activities. Whether you're marveling at the Classic Car Show, shopping from local vendors, or enjoying local entertainment, every moment at Spring Fling helps fuel a greater cause.

And what’s a little fun without some friendly competition? This year’s event will feature the beloved Rubber Duck Race, a crowd-favorite where participants can win prizes, and the always entertaining Local "Celebrity" Kiss the Pig—a hilarious challenge all in the name of charity! Plus, kids will love bouncing around Axe's Inflatable Playground, while food lovers can indulge in treats from a variety of food trucks.

Net proceeds from Spring Fling & our Duck Race go directly to Operation Presents Under the Tree, ensuring that RHFD can continue making a difference in the lives of local families. So, bring your friends and family, enjoy a fantastic day out, and be a part of something bigger—because when we come together, we make our community stronger.

🔥 Join us and help RHFD bring joy to families in need—one celebration at a time! 🔥
