A great evening spent at AIM Recycling with the Timmins Volunteer Fire Department. We got to practice with the extrication tools and work as a team. Shared some knowledge and some laughs. Thanks to everyone for attending and thanks to Acting Chief Training Officer, Jennifer Leigh for helping us with a great session!

🔥 Great News, Timmins! 🔥

The city-wide fire ban and Ministry restrict fire zone will be lifted effective 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, July 25, meaning campfire season is back!

There's nothing quite like gathering around a campfire with family and friends, roasting marshmallows, making s'mores, sharing stories, and enjoying the great outdoors.

Before you light your first fire, remember:

🔥 Follow all City of Timmins burning permit regulations.
🔥 Only burn in approved fire pits and never leave a fire unattended.
🔥 Keep a water source or fire extinguisher nearby.
🔥 Ensure your fire is completely extinguished before leaving the area.
🔥 Burn only clean, dry wood, never garbage or other prohibited materials.

Let's all do our part to prevent unnecessary fires and keep our communities and forests safe.

Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy those s'mores! 🍫🔥🏕️

The Timmins Fire Department has issued a city-wide FULL FIRE BAN effective immediately.

NO open fires are permitted within city-limits until further notice. All burning permits have been suspended and Service Timmins is not selling burning permits at this time.

This means:
- NO campfires
- NO burning in outdoor fireplaces
- NO burning in outdoor fire pits

Any person setting an open-air fire will be responsible and liable for costs and possible fine.

There is a lack of precipitation and extremely dry conditions. Please cooperate and stay safe.

Our volunteer firefighters aren’t just neighbours helping out—they are highly trained professionals who meet the exact same NFPA standards as full-time crews. They don’t just show up when it’s convenient; they:

• leave family dinners at a moment's notice

• jump out of bed for 3:00 AM calls

• step away from their "day jobs" the second the pager sounds

These individuals are the backbone of our fire services, protecting over 80% of Ontario’s geography. 🌲🚜

This , we’re looking past the gear at the people behind it. To the firefighters balancing careers, families, and the sudden ring of a pager: We see the dedication it takes to serve your community at 3:00 AM and still be at your desk by 9:00 AM.

Thank you for the commitment it takes to balance both roles. 👨‍🚒
