Usually, ribbons are used to open new facilities, but there will be a different touch with Espanola’s new fire hall.
The Moose was provided with a tour of the facility yesterday to introduce its many amenities to the public.
The new fire hall has four bays and comfortable change rooms for the firefighters, handicapped access and washrooms.
It also houses a new training center, which will not only be used for municipal staff training from all departments, it is hoped it will eventually, provide a hub for training of firefighters across Northeastern Ontario.
The new fire truck has also arrived and the older truck is being sent out for repairs.
Espanola Mayor Jill Beer and her council will be on hand for the grand hose cutting ceremony on June 27th from 1:00 pm to 7:00 pm to accommodate people on shift work and/or working so that the public can tour the facility and talk to staff.
