A Small Fire and False Alarms Dominated the Eight Calls in the Fire Chiefs Report for January.

On January 1st they quickly extinguished a small fire that had rekindled in a building at Big Island Lake.

On the 8th they were called to an alarm on Kingsway.  The alarm had been accidently tripped.  They were called to the same address on the 14th where they found the owners were eliminating the alarm due to too many false alarms.  On the 25th an alarm was sounding at Walmart where workers had been testing the sprinkler system and set off the alarm.  On the 29th they received a call that a stove had shattered in a home on Wright Avenue and was now smelling odd. They found the stove top had shattered and cause shrapnel to launch in the area.  They ensured the safety of the home.  On the 29th they responded to a vehicle that had entered the ditch on highway ten and south Big Island.  After checking the scene they left it in control of the RCMP.  They were also called to assist EMS on two occasions.

             

During the month there was training for new recruits, self contained breathing apparatus training, smoke search and rescue training and helicopter landing protocols and procedures.
