Elko fire department recruitment begins
The Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) is hosting a volunteer recruitment and information session for the Elko Volunteer Fire Department.
Elko and area voters last November voted in favour of the establishment of a community volunteer fire department.
With the aim of finding volunteers to join the fledgling fire department, a community dinner and info session is planned for Wednesday, Feb. 5 at the Elko Community Hall.
Free beef on a bun will be available from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. when a presentation will be given on how to volunteer for the fire department.
And on Saturday, Feb. 7, starting at 9:30 a.m., there will be an equipment expo and another info session, including an equipment and truck display with another volunteer recruitment info session taking place at 10:30 a.m.
