Good morning! ☀️
Firefighters are great at putting out fires, but we’re pretty good at flipping pancakes too! Come out for a delicious pancake breakfast, fill up on great food, catch up with neighbors, and support your local fire department. It’s one morning where we’ll encourage you to play with your food… as long as it’s covered in syrup! 😉🥞🚒

We are serving dine in or carry out from 7:30am-10am!! We hope to see everyone there!

Mark your calendars! 🚒🍂

Our 4th Annual Callands Fire & Rescue Festival is coming this October, and we’re already counting down the days. It’s a day full of good food, local vendors, family fun, and fellowship with neighbors and friends from across the community.

Every year gets a little bigger, and that’s all thanks to the support of folks like you. We’d love for you to come out, spend the day with us, and help make this year the best one yet.

We’ll be sharing more details soon, so stay tuned. We can’t wait to see everyone in October!

If you are interested in becoming a vendor please reach out to us via email at: [email protected]

Please make note:
Last year we had an issue with scammers claiming they were apart of our department trying to take payments for vendor applications. We try to delete and limit their activity as much as possible but we may not always get to it fast enough. With that being said please only reach out to the email listed or directly to our Facebook messenger for questions or concerns. We apologize for the inconvenience!

Thanks to this wonderful community our BBQ fundraiser was a huge success but we may have gotten a little too carried away with the smoker. 😅

We still have a few leftovers so we are selling them at a discounted price; 🍖1 pint of BBQ & 🥘 1 pint of baked beans for just $14! Now, that’s a steal!!

Comment below or contact a member to grab some before it’s all gone!!
