Following last night’s fire, we have been overwhelmed by the kind words, messages of support, and appreciation from our community.
Many have called us heroes, and while we are truly humbled by those words, we want everyone to know that 𝐰𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥 - 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐮𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭. We are your neighbours, friends, coworkers, and family members. We don’t do this for recognition or praise. We do it because we care about the people and communities we serve. ❤️
A special thank you to an incredible group of young men who showed up at the firehall this evening with coffee and treats! After a long night and another evening spent cleaning equipment, getting our trucks back in order, and making sure we’re ready for the next call, your thoughtful gesture was exactly what we needed to keep us going.
But it wasn’t just the coffee and treats that meant so much. It was the respect these teenagers showed by taking time out of their evening to stop by, shake our hands, and thank us for a job well done.
Young men, you should be proud of yourselves, because we certainly are! Knowing we have young people like you growing up in our community says a lot about the future of our little town. And when you turn 18, if firefighting is something you’d like to try, make sure you come see us! We’d be proud to have you join our team someday! 🚒❤️
💌 Another very special thank you goes out to Mme. Seymour’s class for the beautiful handmade cards that were delivered to us tonight! Every card brought a smile to our faces, and they are a wonderful reminder of why we do what we do.
We even had a pretty special little helper with us this evening to help put them all up! Thank you, Aschelle! ♥️
It’s moments like these that remind us just how fortunate we are to serve such an incredible community.
Last night was a long night, and today was another busy day getting everything cleaned, checked, and ready to go again. But gestures like these, whether it’s a kind word, a handshake, a cup of coffee, or a handmade card, mean more to our members than you could ever imagine.
