MFD hosting open house next week
The Melfort Fire Department is opening their doors to the public next week.
An open house will be held Thursday, Oct. 10, starting at 6:30 p.m.
Fire Chief Jason Everitt said the event will feature displays, tools and gear, and firetruck rides for kids.
“The whole idea is to get people down to the fire hall to see who we are, see what we do,” Everett said. “When they leave and they go back home at the end of the evening, they’ve got a better appreciation I guess of the professionals that Melfort has here providing that protection for them.”
