❄️ COLD WEATHER SAFETY REMINDER ❄️
Carbon Monoxide: The Silent Winter Killer
As temperatures drop, many of us turn to heaters, fireplaces, and generators to stay warm. Remember—carbon monoxide (CO) is odorless, colorless, and deadly. It can build up quickly in enclosed spaces.
🔥 Prevent CO Poisoning: ✅ Make sure all vents, chimneys, and exhausts are clear of snow and ice
✅ Never run vehicles, generators, or propane heaters in garages or enclosed spaces
✅ Keep portable heaters well-ventilated and approved for indoor use
✅ Install and test CO alarms in your home
✅ If your alarm goes off—get outside and call 911
🚨 Know the symptoms: Headache • dizziness • nausea • confusion • chest pain • fainting
If you suspect CO exposure, get fresh air immediately and seek medical help.
Stay warm, stay safe, and look out for each other this winter. ❤️❄️

🇨🇦 Remembrance Day 🇨🇦
Today, we pause to honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of those who have fought — and continue to serve — for our freedom and peace.
Our members would like to extend our deepest respect to the veterans within our community, and to the families whose loved ones have served or continue to serve our country. Your strength, dedication, and sacrifice are never forgotten.
As first responders, we understand the meaning of duty, courage, and selflessness. We stand in gratitude and remembrance with all Canadians today.
At 11:00 a.m., we join our community in a moment of silence to remember and reflect.

🚫 Danger: Thin Ice 🚫
As temperatures fluctuate, ice on ponds and lakes can be unpredictable and unsafe. Even if it looks solid, snow cover and changing weather can make it dangerously thin.

Please stay off the ice, and remind children to do the same. Let’s keep everyone safe and avoid a preventable emergency this winter. ❄️

❄️ First Snowfall Reminder from Your Local First Responders 🚗
The first snow has arrived, and with it comes slick roads and reduced visibility. In our rural community, conditions can change quickly — so please drive with care:

✅ Slow down and give yourself extra time to reach your destination.
✅ Increase your following distance — icy roads mean longer stopping times.
✅ Keep headlights on and ensure your windshield is clear.
✅ Pack an emergency kit — blanket, flashlight, charger, and snacks.
✅ Let someone know your route, especially if traveling outside town.

Let’s all do our part to keep the roads safe for ourselves, our families, and our community. Stay safe and drive smart this winter! ❄️🚙

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Halloween is a fun, spooky time for kids, but safety comes first! Here are key tips to keep everyone safe:

• Keep kids clear of candles in jack-o’-lanterns, fireplaces, or lanterns.
• Glow sticks or battery-operated candles are better than real flames.
• Keep decorations away from heaters, bulbs, and open flames.
• Keep doorways and hallways clear for quick escape.
• Check smoke alarms before festivities.

Stay spooky and safe! 🦇👻
