Prevention, Emergency Response, and the Comox Fire Training Centre
Comox Fire Rescue provides a variety of preventive and emergency services to a population of over 18,000 in an area of 16 square miles. This includes the Town of Comox, the Comox Fire Protection Improvement District, the Bates Huband Local Service Area (Regional District of Comox-Strathcona), and the Comox Indian Band. They also operate the Comox Fire Training Centre, which trains firefighters from all over Vancouver Island, and even parts of BC and the rest of Canada. The training centre is certified by the JIBC.
The Comox Fire Training Centre put the Vanier hockey team through two hours of vigorous exercise yesterday. The weather wasn't the greatest, but the kids kept warm through physical activity (hot chocolate helped too!). Many thanks to the volunteers that kept everything running smooth!
