One week until Saved by the Beep! @AHtownship is encouraging residents to take part in Test Your Smoke Alarm Day on Thursday, Sept. 28 by making sure all the smoke alarms and CO detectors in your home are working properly. It could save a life.

@AHFireServices took part in swift water rescue training at the Minden Wild Water Preserve during the weekend, a first for members in the County. A huge thank you to our volunteer firefighters for everything they do to keep our community safe!

Yes, that haze in the sky is smoke from forest fires (both in Ontario and Quebec) and @environmentca has issued a Special Air Quality Statement. The smoke is expected to linger at least until tomorrow. You can read the statement here: weather.gc.ca/city/pages/on-…

Annual Dorset Snowball Winter Carnival. Lots of support for @AHFireServices and the village of @DorsetOntario. Always great to see the Town Crier, Mayor Danielsen @AHtownship, @ScottAAitchison, @LaurieScottPC & @Jamie_Schmale. The youngest new member of our family was also there.

We get it – It’s cold outside, but never smoke in the garage. Garages burn too. If you smoke, smoke outside. Extinguish cigarettes in a metal container, not in plant pots or on the ground. #FireSafety starts with you.
