Old and New.
Had a visit from retired Chief Bob Ferguson to check out the new rig.
He commented on how technology has improved and that Maitland Fire has come a long ways.
This is all due to the hard work of our Maitland Fire Dept Auxiliary, the firefighters, Muni. of East Hants and the generous contributions from our amazing community.

Maitland and District Fire Dept would like to welcome our brand new pumper to the fleet. Engine 511 will help modernize our fleet, giving us better firefighting capabilities and a safer truck to work with.

You may see us around the District practicing and learning our new machine.

There will be an official unveiling at the Maitland Fire Dept Fun Days on June 20. Lots of events for all ages; barbecue, cake walk, dime auction, children’s firefighter challenge and maybe more.

Things are tight.
It’s time to start thinking about a new station.
Our current building has been the center of the community for a long time, but it’s time to expand.
Before we build we need land.
Close to the village center is preferred.
Reasonably we would like to be between 8361 Hwy 215 (camp ground), 9281 Hwy 215 ( Beaties old garage) and 327 Cedar Road ( Richard MacKenzies farm).
Approx 3 acres, more or less, would be preferred.
If you are considering selling, or know someone, we would love to talk.
Feel free to reach.

Last weekend one of members, Jessie Maymi, started Vehicle Extrication training.
Car accidents require specialized training to safely remove injured victims. This kind of training is very important and something we practice regularly.
Good work by all the attendees.

Working with water and enjoying the lovely weather.
No fire hydrants in our area. All our water is brought in trucks, dumped into tanks and then sucked up by the pumper. The pumper pressurized the water and sends it out the hoses.
Thanks to everyone who gave up their beautiful evening to practice.
