Continued heavy rainfall has caused local creeks and streams to rise and flow faster than normal.
DNVFRS crews are currently responding to a water rescue incident in the Woodlands area.
Last month, our crew had a great time taking part in the Lynn Valley Services Society event at Mollie Nye House.
The extinguisher trainer proved to be a big hit, and we enjoyed connecting with residents while sharing fire safety information.
Did you know it's Fire Prevention Week? This year's theme is “Charge Into Fire Safety: Safe Charging Is a Superpower.”
