🚒🔥🥾 Tomorrow!!! Look for us at parking lots across the city of Barrie for our annual Boot Drive! Every dollar raised by our volunteers will go directly towards muscular dystrophy and community projects right in Barrie! #bpffa #bootdrive2026 #musculardystrophycanada

🔥👨‍🚒👩‍🚒 THIS THURSDAY JUNE 7TH!!! We'll be out volunteering at parking lots across the city for our annual Boot Drive! 100% of the proceeds we raise go directly towards helping those with muscular dystrophy and those in need in the City of Barrie! As we know cash isn't as readily available as it used to be, we also have tap options for donation directly on our boots. A huge thank you to the citizens of Barrie that continue to have us amongst the top fundraising departments in the country! See you next weekend!

Tomorrow we welcome our twenty-two new recruits to the floor to coincide with the grand opening of Fire Station #6. From November 4th to 7th, the newest members of the Barrie Professional Fire Fighter Assosiation underwent Live Fire Training at CFB Borden. They conducted 40 dynamic and varied evolutions designed to be as realistic as possible to prepare for the first chapter in their new careers. They worked hard and performed well. Great job, recruits! #bpffa #recruittraining #bpffarecruitclass2025
