Celebrating Chief Kathy Steckel’s Retirement

After 30 years with North Fork Ambulance — starting as a volunteer EMT and serving most recently as District Chief — Kathy Steckel is retiring. Please join us to celebrate her amazing career and to meet our new District Chief, Robert Good.

Tuesday, September 1, 2026
10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
North Fork EMS Headquarters
110 E. Hotchkiss Ave., Hotchkiss, CO

The celebration will include brief remarks honoring Kathy’s career, a chance to meet Chief Good, and light refreshments. This is a drop-in event, so come and go as your schedule allows. No RSVP needed.

Chief Good brings 38 years of EMS experience, including ten years as a flight and rescue medic and FEMA deployments to major hurricanes. He is looking forward to meeting our partner agencies and the communities the district serves.

We hope you can join us to send Kathy off right and welcome Robert to the North Fork Valley.
