2025 ANNUAL REPORT: Last year, three TNRD-operated fire departments - Blackpool Fire Rescue, Tobiano Fire Department, and Vavenby Fire Department- were all identified as trained first responders through an agreement with BC Emergency Health Services. This enables firefighters to to respond to medical calls within their service areas, providing an immediate response to 9-1-1 medical calls in these areas.
