Edgerton Fire<br />
Department hosts<br />
wildland course<br />
Terri Huxley<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
Just in time for Fire Prevention<br />
Week, twenty firefighters from the<br />
National Defence Fire Services,<br />
Paradise Valley, Irma, Provost and<br />
Edgerton fire departments participated<br />
in a regional wildland course<br />
over a two week period.<br />
They wrote their exams and did<br />
their practical skills evaluations for<br />
the NFPA <strong>10</strong>51 wildland course on<br />
Sun. Oct. 6.<br />
The course was hosted in<br />
Edgerton at the Ribstone Creek<br />
Brewery.<br />
The individuals worked hard,<br />
learned much, and gave their weekends<br />
in dedication to their<br />
respective fire departments and<br />
communities.<br />
Edgerton Fire Chief Jon Koroluk<br />
was thoroughly impressed by the<br />
commitment and professionalism<br />
the group displayed.<br />
“Myself as well as all of the chiefs<br />
at the other fire departments that<br />
attended are beyond proud of all the<br />
members that took time away from<br />
their families and their own lives to<br />
attend this training,” said Koroluk.<br />
“What impressed me was – and I<br />
feel I am speaking on behalf of all<br />
the chiefs who had firefighters<br />
attend – the people that we have<br />
representing our fire departments<br />
are the cream of their communities.<br />
They are the ones that seem to rise<br />
to the top,” he said.<br />
On scene were instructors who<br />
prepared the outstanding calibre of<br />
their instruction and the course<br />
evaluator who upheld the strict and<br />
untainted professional standards<br />
these departments champion.<br />
The Garden’s Edge Cafe and the<br />
Edgerton Oasis Hotel catered<br />
lunches while Dobie Diaries<br />
Photography captured the live fire<br />
training.<br />
Canada’s Fire Prevention Week is<br />

FireSmart principles<br />
for rural areas<br />
Fire Prevention Week, observed to<br />
commemorate the Great Chicago Fire<br />
of 1871, gives individuals, families<br />
and communities a chance to learn<br />
more about staying safe in case of a<br />
fire.<br />
Here in the Special Areas, wildfires<br />
– specifically grassfires – have<br />
become more frequent and more<br />
destructive.<br />
To help residents learn more about<br />
staying safe from grassfires, a new<br />
public education campaign is being<br />
launched this fall which shares<br />
FireSmart principles and fire prevention<br />
techniques for rural farm sites<br />
and residences.<br />
