Firefighters gain pumper truck for use at training complex

Monday at the Hastings-Prince Edward Mutual Aid Association Training Complex meeting, Belleville Deputy Fire Chief Mark MacDonald presented the keys to their 1992 Pumper over to committee members. In 2011 the City of Quinte West donated a 1990 Pumper to the HPEMAA Training Tower.
“Now that we have two pumpers for use at our training complex it will eliminate the need to ask member departments to take trucks out of service to use for the delivery of courses and training sessions,” said Robert Rutter, Prince Edward County’s Deputy Chief. The training tower committee holds 12 specialty courses per year to train more than 250 firefighters in different aspects of emergency services. Member departments are also able to book the facility to deliver their own department training sessions and will now be able to use the two on-site pumpers.
