I’m truly honored to present a $3,000 grant to the Exeter #1 Fire Station to support improved scene lighting.This funding will help enhance nighttime visibility and safety.

I’m incredibly grateful for the dedication of these firefighters. When the call comes in, they drop everything and go, no questions asked. It’s inspiring to witness that level of commitment and service every day.

Thank you, Exeter #1, for all that you do to keep our community safe. Exeter Volunteer Fire Co No 1

This morning, members conducted a prescribed burn on a local farm. By doing this, it gives our firefighters live wildland firefighting experience, teaches them fire behavior, how quickly wind conditions impact the spread, and shows how effective fire breaks are when utilized.

Members also received pumping and drivers training in our brush trucks as well as our UTV

Great work to all of our volunteers who came out today
