Thank you for many years that you served as a volunteer for Cumberland Fire Rescue and for your five years of service as our Fire Chief and Bylaw Enforcement Officer. Our community was very lucky to have you here. Best wishes to you in your new job as the Fire Chief of Golden.

Our volunteer firefighters are awesome but....

What are we doing in this Village to support our volunteer firefighters? They are working out of that same old firehall. We need to make sure that we have a firehall that isn't going to collapse in an earthquake. Why are we making things like chains of office a priority when some of the folks that serve us best still work out of an unsafe building? What happens if the trucks are covered by debris and our homes are burning? I am very sorry that our chief is leaving. He represented our Village well and he will be missed in our community.
Maybe we can park our fire trucks in the new fangled tourist info centre.
