Have you ever looked around your community and wished there was more you could do to help?

That desire to contribute is often where volunteering begins. You care about the people who live around you, you want to be involved, and you know that giving some of your time could make a meaningful difference in someone else's life.

Becoming a volunteer firefighter with Bonnyville Regional Fire Authority gives you the opportunity to turn that desire into action. Through firefighter training, teamwork, and hands-on experience, you'll develop the skills and confidence to help your neighbours when they need support.

It takes commitment to become a volunteer firefighter, especially when you're balancing work, family, and everyday responsibilities. For someone who genuinely wants to serve their community, having the opportunity to contribute in such a meaningful way can make that commitment worthwhile.

If you've been thinking about getting more involved in your community, perhaps volunteering with BRFA is something worth exploring.

🚨 Fire permit season has ended, but you still need to call dispatch before you burn.

Although fire permits are no longer required for the season, residents conducting open-air burns must still report their planned burning activities to dispatch at 780-826-7446.

When someone sees smoke in the distance, they may report it as a fire. If your burn hasn't been called in, it can result in an unnecessary emergency response because dispatch has no record of your planned burning activity.

By notifying dispatch before you burn, you're helping prevent unnecessary emergency responses and keeping our crews available for actual emergencies.

Before lighting your burn pile, call dispatch at 780-826-7446 and let them know about your planned burn.

November 1 - 7 is Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week.

With colder weather arriving and furnaces and fireplaces coming back into regular use, it's a good time to check the carbon monoxide and smoke alarms in your home.

Carbon monoxide is a gas you can't see, smell, or taste. It can be produced by fuel-burning equipment such as furnaces, fireplaces, and water heaters. If something isn't working or venting properly, carbon monoxide can build up indoors without warning.

Working carbon monoxide alarms provide an important early warning if dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are detected in your home.

There are a few things you can do to help keep your household safe:

đźź  Test your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms once a month.
đźź  Replace batteries when needed and check the manufacturer's recommended replacement date.
đźź  Have your fuel-burning appliances inspected annually by a qualified technician.
đźź  Keep outdoor vents and exhaust outlets clear of snow, ice, and debris.

If your carbon monoxide alarm sounds, get everyone outside to fresh air immediately and call 911. Do not re-enter your home until emergency responders say it's safe.

During Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week, take a few minutes to make sure your alarms are working and your home is ready for the colder months ahead.

🔥 Fire Permit Season Has Ended 🔥

Although fire permits are no longer required, residents are reminded to continue using caution when burning and to notify Fire Dispatch before starting any outdoor burn.

Here's why that call matters 👇🏼

When someone sees smoke, they may report it thinking there is a fire emergency. Calling dispatch ahead of time helps identify planned burns and prevent unnecessary emergency responses, keeping crews available for other emergencies.

If you're planning to burn, please take a moment to make that call before lighting your fire.

Happy Halloween from Bonnyville Regional Fire Authority đź‘»

Whether you're heading out trick-or-treating or staying home to hand out candy, we hope everyone has a fun and safe evening.

If you're welcoming trick-or-treaters tonight, take a moment to check that your front entrance is well-lit, decorations are safely placed away from heat sources, and walkways are clear.

For families heading out, make sure costumes are easy to move around in, bring a flashlight, and watch for traffic when crossing streets.

And if you're driving tonight, please slow down in residential areas and keep an extra eye out for children.

Have a safe and Happy Halloween!

If you’re heading out on the trails this fall, keep an eye on the dry leaves and grass collecting around your ATV, UTV, or dirt bike’s exhaust.

ATVs, UTVs, and dirt bikes generate significant heat around their exhaust systems. Dry leaves, grass, and other debris can collect near these hot components and ignite, potentially starting a fire that spreads into surrounding vegetation.

Before heading out, check your machine for any buildup of dry vegetation around the exhaust and other areas that generate heat. Take another look during your ride and once you're finished, allowing hot components to cool before removing any debris.

Pay attention to where you stop or park, as dry grass and fallen leaves can ignite when they come into contact with hot exhaust components.

With so much dry vegetation on the ground this time of year, taking a few extra minutes to check your machine can help prevent a fire.



10/23/2026

Before you hit the road this weekend, check your fall vehicle emergency kit.

Emergency kits can stay tucked away in the trunk for months, so take a few minutes to check your supplies, replace anything expired or damaged, and add warmer essentials for fall travel.

đź”– Save this post and use the checklist before you head out this weekend.

Slow down when approaching a roadside emergency scene. Only a few feet separate your vehicle from the people working there.

Volunteer Firefighters, Paramedics and EMRs, law enforcement officers, tow truck operators, and highway workers can be working just steps from moving traffic while responding to an emergency, assisting someone, directing traffic, or clearing the roadway.

When you see flashing lights ahead, start reducing your speed and pay attention to what is happening around the scene. Watch for people moving near or across the roadway, follow any directions being given, and move over when it is safe to do so.

When you give them more space and reduce your speed, you help make the roadside safer for everyone working there.
