Fire Fest a success
By Deanna Bertrand
KINGSVILLE— Dreams of one day becoming a firefighter may have been born this past weekend as many children and adults had a chance to step up on vintage trucks, ring the fire bells and get their photos taken with their favourites.
Saturday, September 4 was the first Fire Fest for the town, which was kicked off with a pancake breakfast in Cottam hosted by the North Station.
Kingsville Fire Chief John Quennell said they had a “great turnout”and that it was great to see so many kids out — some even in their “bunker gear” for the pancake breakfast.
The vintage trucks remained on the streets of Kingsville until about 3 pm when Kingsville Open Streets began.
