Last week, 15 of our newest recruits officially completed their recruit training and are now starting their first days on shift!

After months of hard work and training, they’ll now begin the next chapter of their careers, a year long probation where they’ll continue learning, developing their skills, and gaining experience alongside their crews.

As part of their final day we invited their families to join us and watch them perform their new skills as fire fighters and the off duty members cooked up an awesome BBQ lunch.

The class of 15 surprised us at the end of the day by presenting us with this very cool helmet signed by all of them! Thank you all,
this will be a very cool tradition you’ve started.
