🍂 Open Burning Reminder 🍂

As fall yard cleanup gets underway, please remember that open burning is not permitted Armstrong or Spallumcheen until November 1, 2026.

Waiting until the permitted burn season helps reduce fire risks and reduces the smoke in the air. We appreciate everyone's cooperation and commitment to fire prevention.

Please check local bylaws for more information.

Earlier in the summer, the Armstrong Spallumcheen Fire Department held a fun evening of team-building activities. Getting to know each other and building camaraderie goes a long way to developing a strong team... and dumping water on each other builds a REALLY strong team A special thank you to Askew's Foods for supplying the ingredients for our barbeque beforehand.
