🔋 Fire Safety Tip: Unplug When Fully Charged!

Once your device is fully charged, unplug it! Leaving it connected longer than necessary can contribute to heat and put extra stress on the battery.

A small habit can make a big difference in keeping your home and family safe. 🏡🔥

Fire Prevention Week 2026

🔋 Does your device seem… off?

Trust your gut. If a battery smells strange, feels unusually warm, makes popping noises, changes shape or colour, or starts smoking — stop using it immediately.

If it’s safe to do so, move the device away from anything that could catch fire and get everyone to safety.

⚠️ Damaged batteries can overheat and start a fire.

Take a few seconds to check your devices today. A little awareness can help prevent a big problem.

Fire Prevention Week 2026

From October 4-10, we are recognizing Fire Prevention Week with this year's theme: "Charge into Fire Safety!"

As more devices and vehicles rely on rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, it's important to understand how to use, charge, and store them safely. Phones, laptops, power tools, e-bikes, e-scooters, and many other everyday items can pose a fire risk if batteries are damaged, improperly charged, or used with the wrong equipment.

Join us Tuesday October 6, 5:30pm to 9pm for Fire Prevention BBQ, Open house and Recruitment Drive.

Fire Training Facility

We wrapped up the final details on our new fire training facility and putting it straight to use with live fire training exercises led by our newly certified group of 1403 Live Fire Instructors.

From fire attack and search scenarios to instructor development and live fire operations, the facility has already been filled with learning opportunities and valuable hands-on experience. Seeing this team work together and grow their skills has been incredible.

This is more than just a training ground, it's an investment in firefighter safety, professional development, and our commitment to providing the best possible service to our community.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this vision a reality.

Investing in Training, Investing in Safety

Last week, six of our members attended the NFPA 1403 Live Fire Instructor Course in Red Deer. This specialized training focuses on the safe and effective delivery of live fire training exercises, ensuring instructors have the knowledge and skills to create realistic learning environments while maintaining the highest safety standards.

This was an amazing group of people all working toward a safer environment for all live fire training exercises.
