Announcements

Congratulations to the following firefighters:

John Hester and Roy Mactavish have been promoted to Acting Lieutenants in their respective platoons. These are 3 month terms that can be renewed. Based on recommendations from their officers, these firefighters were judged to be good candidates for these Acting Positions. Well done guys.

The first member selected to the Safe Firefighter of the Month program was announced today. Firefighter Glenn Harrison was chosen by his platoon members. His insistance on ensuring that all firefighters riding in his apparatus wear their seat belts is a positive step in ensuring that everyone arrives safely at calls, training and back home to the station. Glenn was presented with a certificate, a stainless steel FD thermos and will have his photo posted on the January section of the calendar. Please take the time to review other safe practices and forward names of firefighters that go above and beyond in making sure things are done safely to the OH&S committee for their review.

Again, congratulations to the three of you. I have great respect for your dedication and performance. Keep up the good work.
