McQueeney Elementary held Field Days on Thursday, May 11th and Friday May 12th. The students were allowed to participate in a number of fun outdoor activities, and treated to snow cones. The McQueeney Volunteer Fire Department was on site with several of their vehicles including their ladder truck. Students were “cooled down” with spray from the trucks and hoses.
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of retired Assistant Chief Charles “Chuck” Hoagland, of the McQueeney Volunteer Fire Department. Chuck, as he was known to his family, friends, and neighboring volunteer fire departments, began his firefighter/EMT career with the McQueeney VFD on December 10, 1980 after serving in the Navy for 8 years and retiring as a Lieutenant.

Thank you to the McQueeney community and friends that took part in our Halloween Party and haunted house. Your participation and generous monetary support are sincerely appreciated!
Volunteers from the McQueeney Volunteer Fire Department, as well as a team of puppetmasters from Mexico, spent the day Friday (October 14th) at McQueeney Elementary School teaching the students about fire prevention and safety. The students, grades K-5, enjoyed the puppets and the demonstrations performed by the volunteers. The department also had several fire engines on display and showed the students the various tools and procedures used by the volunteers on calls.
The students also were reminded about the Haunted Fire House party that will be held 5:00-9:00 on Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th of October.
An impressive parade of fire trucks and McQueeney volunteers took part in the Altwein Lane National Night Out community party. The neighbors were grateful and awe struck by the fire department display and took comfort in learning the level of protection they enjoy.

On Sunday, September 11, 2022, four McQueeney volunteers joined more than 500 other first responders to honor the 343 firefighters who had fallen during the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City on 9/11/2001. The first responders climbed the stairs in the Tower of the Americas in Hemisfair Plaza in San Antonio in full rescue gear twice, a height equal to 110 floors and exceeding the height of the Twin Towers that were destroyed in the attacks. Each participant carried a tag bearing the name of a firefighter who perished that day. Members from McQueeney included Chief Michael Wiedner, Assistant Chief Ray Salas, Firefighter/EMT Brant Wilhoit and Lt./EMT Jonathan Dominguez.
