Volunteer firefighter training happening this weekend


If you see fire fighters out in full force this weekend it doesn't necessarily mean there's a fire. Thunder Bay is playing host to the Ontario Fire College's fire fighter survival, search and resuce, and fire supression course.
Volunteer firefighters from O'Connor, Gillis, East Gorham, Lappe, and other townships are being taught a number of important skills. There will be live fire situations using a fire tower, vehicles, roofs and flammable materials.
