Elgin Volunteer Fire Department

This week we were reminded of the dangers of firefighting not only in the fire scene but also responding to the scene as well. Monday night Our Captain was dri...ving the rescue to a mutual aid call when he started experiencing chest pans. They quickly changed drivers and an ambulance that was staged at the fire scene quickly did an assessment and took him to the hospital. Today he is being treated at the cardiac unit and is expected to recover. Please keep our crew in your thoughts when you hear those sirens. A big thank you to the ambulance attendees who acted quickly. Also, this is a great time to ask younger and middle aged members of our community to consider joining our fire department to reduce the work load of our senior members. Ask yourself if it’s time you became involved? See more

Great to have our old pump running after being rebuilt. Elgin’s original water pumper.

Just a reminder of our Firefighters lotto every Saturday Morning at 10 AM at the Elgin Country Kitchen. Just $2/week and funds go to fire prevention and fire gear. If you’d like to have a number, please ask Sheila Mullin or one of our firefighters.

It’s fire Prevention week. We wish we could be hosting our annual open house but unfortunately Covid stopped that. Please take time to check over our flyer and don’t hesitate to ask a firefighter if you have any questions.

The Elgin Fire Dept. is starting the 50/50 lotto back after the stoppage from Covid. Any funds that were in the draws before the Stoppage will be carried over. If you have a number please consider getting back to it as this is a Fundraiser to support our work in the community. If you don’t have a number and would like one, please contact Sheila Mullin or the Chief. Money can be deposited at the Elgin Country Kitchen store. Thanks

We are almost completely red for no burn except Alber and Kings counties. No burning until after 8PM in these regions.

A bit of a turn around. Camp fires permitted again.

Looks like we’re back to Red in our area. No burning. Please google NB forest fire watch before burning.

Just in time for the weekend. A full green province.
