Jim Abel receives Home Town Hero Award
Delisle Fire Department adds Quad for Grass Fires
he Delisle Fire Department recently add a new Quad unit to the fleet. It is designed to get into hard to reach areas in a grass fire and is equiped with a water sprayer. Fire Chief Al Dreher spearheaded the quad project. He obtained the quad from Moody’s Equipment at a considerable discount, and an Agrium donation covered the cost. The trailer was provided by Flamans at cost, and a donation from the Delisle Co-op covered that expense. The fire departments own fundraising projects covered the remaining costs of converting the quad by installing the water tank, sprayer and lights. Although the department hopes to never have to use the unit, they know the day will come, and they will be able to respond more effectively. A true community co-operation project that will serve all the residents well for years to come.
