Fire Fighters |
|
|
The Fire Department has 27 volunteer fire fighters.
Staff consists of a full time fire chief and a part time clerical support person. Our dedicated fire
fighters spend many hours training to keep up to date on the latest and best methods of fire fighting.
They also do a great deal in the fire prevention area. The Association has fundraisers to purchase equipment.
These fundraisers include a golf tournament, car wash and a concession at “Midnight Madness”. We are proud of
our Fire Chief Miles Maughan, Deputy Fire Chief Don Stephenson and all the members of the Fire Department. Contact
our Administration office at the fire hall at (705) 457-2126 if you have any questions about this very valuable
service to our community. |

The Forest Fire Danger Rating is determined using the Forest Weather Index (FWI), an internationally used method for determining the risk of fires in open air. It uses factors such as the relative humidity, temperature, previous 24 hour rain amount, wind direction and wind speed in combination with the forest fuel type and loads to determine the risk of the forest to certain fire types. |
