The <strong>Fire</strong> <strong>Service</strong>’s <strong>Fire</strong> Safety Ambassador,<br />
Peter Leitch, aka the Mad Butcher has<br />
been getting hands-on in his new role!<br />
Wayne Gerrand, manager of the<br />
Palmerston North Mad Butcher shop,<br />
and ex member of Carterton VFB, invited<br />
Peter to Palmy on a promotional tour.<br />
While there, Peter took time out to help<br />
promote the Keep Looking When You’re<br />
Cooking and Don’t Drink & Fry campaigns<br />
that he’s graciously donated his time to.<br />
He even signed a copy of December’s<br />
<strong>Fire</strong> & Rescue.<br />
Right now we’re working with Peter on<br />
a range of other promotional initiatives<br />
designed to encourage the installation<br />
and regular testing of smoke alarms.<br />
Noticeboard<br />
In December’s <strong>Fire</strong> & Rescue we<br />
did a recap of the year’s events.<br />
In the recap we reported that<br />
Kinleith Pulp and Paper Mill had<br />
been razed by fire on February 5.<br />
This was not true, Kinleith did<br />
experience a fire but it is back<br />
fully operational (and has been for<br />
sometime). <strong>Fire</strong> & Rescue regrets<br />
the error.<br />
Te Kuiti VFB is celebrating its<br />
centenary during Easter weekend<br />
this year. Any inquiries to be<br />
directed to either Grahame Howell<br />
on 021 253 7227 or Phil <strong>New</strong> on<br />
