National Firefighter Challenge 2025 Cancelled
We regrettably advise that the National Firefighter Challenge is cancelled due to extreme weather around the country causing significant travel disruptions.
We have been monitoring weather patterns hourly over the past few days and have intel that the weather will not ease for another 48 hours, causing significant flight disruptions and an enormous backlog.
This decision has not been made lightly, under advice from experts, making the event impossible to deliver.
This event will not be postponed but is cancelled.
We are currently working through dissolving the event, which includes flights and accommodation, please do not ring Gilpin Travel directly. We will advise participants over the next few days about refunds and credits.
We share your disappointment and thank you for your patience while we work through this difficult time.
