Is this an official @CityOfVictoria misting station? It felt pretty good (I was kinda sweaty on my walk home…probably stomping a little too aggressively after too much coffee today)

As we head into the long weekend and the unofficial start of summer, please be reminded that for public safety and environmental protection, fires are not allowed in any park, including beaches. This includes natural gas and propane appliances. https://t.co/aAa2EEBYR3 #yyj

[Victoria Fire L-730 @VictoriaFire730]

The scene arriving crews faced at last nights fast spreading structure fire on Mary Street. A quick exterior attack followed by interior confinement limited fire spread and damage to adjacent structures. Great work by all involved. #yyjnews

After a trip to the vet for a checkup, Willow is recovering just fine. Willow’s owner provided this photo of the kitten resting by the fireplace and noted: "There aren’t adequate words to describe how grateful I am to the Victoria Fire Department for saving Willow." (2/3)

This week, @VictoriaFire730 was called to a residence where a cat had gone missing. The family pet had crawled down a basement drain and was hiding approximately 2 metres down the pipe. Firefighters safely broke through the concrete and recovered Willow. (1/3)

Proud of Bill Eisenhower and Victoria Fires very own Deputy Chief Royle for being recognized by St. John Ambulance and presented with this certificate for saving a life at a council meeting last year. Well deserved!
