We recently had the opportunity to visit the YMCA of Pictou County daycare, where we spent some time with the kids showing off our firefighting equipment, demonstrating what we do, and sharing some important fire safety tips!

We always enjoy taking part in events like these, as they give us the opportunity to connect with the younger members of our community, promote fire safety, and hopefully inspire a few future firefighters along the way!

A big thank you to the YMCA of Pictou County for inviting us! We had a great time, and look forward to more opportunities like this in the future!

This past weekend, several of our members had the opportunity to take part in live fire training using the Nova Scotia Emergency Management Mobile Burn Unit.

The Mobile Burn Unit provides firefighters with a controlled environment to practice fire attack, hose advancement and other essential firefighting skills while experiencing realistic fire and heat conditions.

Training opportunities like this allow our members to continue building their skills, confidence, and teamwork so they are better prepared when called upon to serve our community.

A big thank you to everyone involved in making this valuable training opportunity possible!

🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦

What a great day celebrating Canada Day with our community!

Here are a few photos of Tac 2 taking part in the Westville Canada Day Celebrations parade. A big thank you to all of our members who helped get the truck parade ready and to everyone who came out to represent the Alma Fire Department today.

We’d also like to extend a huge thank you to the members of the Westville Fire & Rescue Department for all of the hard work that goes into organizing and supporting such a fantastic Canada Day celebration. Your efforts help make the day safe, fun, and memorable for everyone involved.

From all of us at the Alma Fire Department, we wish everyone a safe, happy, and enjoyable Canada Day!

Today, members of the Alma Fire Department had the pleasure of visiting the students and staff at Lighthouse Church School in Loch Broom.

During our visit, firefighters gave a brief presentation on the protective gear and equipment we wear during emergency calls, helping students understand how firefighters look and why our gear is so important. We also shared some general fire safety tips, including what to do if a smoke alarm sounds and the importance of having an escape plan at home.

Thank you to Lighthouse Church School for inviting us and for giving us the opportunity to spend time with the students. We always enjoy connecting with our community and helping educate young people about fire safety!

Yesterday evening, members spent some time sharpening their skills during recent brush fire training. These scenarios help prepare our firefighters for the unique challenges that come with wildland and grass fires, while reinforcing teamwork, safety, and effective fireground operations.

Today, on First Responders Day, we take a moment to recognize and thank the dedicated individuals who step up when their communities need them most.

Here at Alma Fire Department, we are incredibly proud of our volunteer members. These men and women answer the call at all hours—leaving their families, jobs, and daily lives behind—to protect and serve others. Their commitment, courage, and selflessness are what keep our community safe.

But today isn’t just about us. It’s about every fire department, every paramedic, every police officer, dispatchers, and all emergency personnel who work together as one team. Whether it’s on the fireground, roadside, or in a medical emergency, it takes a coordinated effort from all first responders to make a difference.

We are grateful to stand alongside such dedicated professionals and volunteers across the region. Your hard work does not go unnoticed.

To all first responders—thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your unwavering commitment to the communities you serve.

Stay safe.
