The Citizen, 1996-10-09, Page 15Part of the community Firefighters are an integral part of any community because of the lifesaving skills which they develop and continual practice to ensure the safety of residents. This area is fortunate to have the well-trained volunteers of the Grey Twp., Brussels and Blyth Fire Departments prepared to assist in any emergency. Firefighters participate .n mock accidents, such as the bus roll-over exercise the Grey Twp. department took part in in 1993, to prepare for any eventuality. Local organizations contribute to the needs of firefighters, A enabling them to assist residents under any conditions. The Blyth Fire Department acquired a snow/water rescue sled last win- ter, allowing for easier access to injured parties in remote areas. It is riot only in emergencies that fire uepartments participate in community activities. Break- fasts are a popular ever , bring- ing firefighters and residents together in a time of laugher and enjoyment. It gives the depart- ment the opportunity to thank the community for supporting their efforts and re -idents the chance to say thank you for their dedication, sacrifice and skilled aid which makes our communi- ties a safer place to live.
