Joint Fire Protection District 3 & 8

We have a new ambulance! Well, new for us. It will help to replace aging and out of service vehicles so we can get the equipment we need to the patients that need it.

UPDATE: The class has been rescheduled for Thursday, December 20, 2018 at 1800

JFPD 3&8 will be having a CPR class December 20 and 1800 hours for district personnel.

If your CPR card is expiring, or if you do not have one and would like one, come to this class.

This class is recommended for all District personnel.

Pension payments are due in December for those department personnel who are contributing.

It is $30.00.  You can bring your cheques to the Annual Dinner.

Remember, in order to be credited for a year’s service, you must have put in the requisite number of call/training attendance, so make sure you are up on those.

The burn ban for Ferry and Stevens County has been lifted.

Despite the recent rain, fuels are still burning, and the fire danger is categorized as Moderate.

Be careful when you burn.  You must monitor your burn at all times, and have the ability to put the fire out if necessary.  (An available water hose, a fire extinguisher, etc.)

If your burn becomes a problem, do not hesitate to call 911.  It is better to call and then call us off than not call and call too late.
