Coronation Fire Department It is with great sadness we note the passing of Gordon Twa.

Among the many organizations he was a part of, Gordon was a

member of Coronation Fire Department for more than 35

years, a remarkable commitment and achievement serving the

community for all those years, and a wonderful example for us

to follow. He will be greatly missed by all.

The Department has started the ongoing task of replacing out

of date bunker gear, this was greatly helped by a substantial

donation some time ago from Steelhead Petroleum. The new

bunker gear is much lighter, cooler, more visible and offers the

very best in protection for our firefighters. We were also

successful in obtaining a partial grant towards the purchase of

wildland firefighting gear. We look forward to getting out in

the community during the summer months throughout all the

many great events in the town of Coronation! Come and say

hello next time you see us out and about.

Summer is finally upon us and with that brings all the summer

activities that we enjoy. Before you head out on your camping

trip here a few tips to help make your trip a safe and enjoyable

time.

• Test and ensure your camper smoke alarm and carbon

monoxide alarm are functioning

• Check your propane lines for cracks and leaks

• Ensure generators are used in well ventilated areas

• Keep gas and flammable sources well away from

campfires and out of reach of children.

• Check your camper batteries are in good condition and

have not frozen and cracked over the winter, and all

connections are tight and battery covers are on.

• It’s a great idea to carry a first aid kit in your camper

including treatments for burns and stings. Also know

the emergency contact numbers of where you are

camping

Agricultural Plastics and Recycling

The Agricultural Plastics Recycling Group have selected Cleanfarms as the Pilot Program Operator for the three-year

pilot program. Cleanfarms will handle program logistics including collection and transportation to recycle the materials.

Paintearth Regional Waste Management Ltd. has offered one of our transfer stations for the pilot program. We will have

to wait for their response whether our area will be included in the program.

Ag Chemical Jugs

As spraying time comes around, please remember to remove all labels and caps from chemical jugs before bringing them

to the transfer stations. Also rinse the jugs properly so that no chemical residue is left. On a yearly basis we collect

somewhere between 6,000 to 10,000 jugs. It takes a lot of time and effort to make sure that all the jugs will be acceptable

to the recycler.

Styrofoam Packaging

Remember to remove all Styrofoam packaging from your cardboard or other recyclable materials. Presently there is no

way to recycle Styrofoam. All Styrofoam must be placed in the regular garbage bins.

Remember to Tarp and Tie-Down Your Loads

If you have any questions, please contact Mike at 403-742- 9576 or by email.
