Budget Propane in the Community - Firefighter Training

Written by James Callow | Sun, Oct 01, 2017 @ 02:00 PM

In September, Budget Propane and Moore Propane helped with emergency propane training for the surrounding Fire Departments. The 2-day flammable gas and liquid training was conducted by Emergency Response Assistance Canada (ERAC) at Station 3 in Port Sydney, and trained upwards of 25 volunteer firefighters. 

"For the past several years Muskoka firefighters have been able to receive valuable propane handling training right here in their community – instead of driving hours elsewhere – thanks to two local companies", Gary Monahan, Deputy Chief with Huntsville/Lake of Bays Fire Department said.

"Monahan is proud of the relationship the fire department has with the two propane companies. 'We have a good relationship with Budget and Moore. We can call them at any time if we have a structure fire and if they have a tech in the region they’ll come in and help us isolate it,' he said."

We're very proud of our relationship in the local community - whether sponsoring a charity event or helping out with training. And it's great to see that the helpfulness of our employees is noted and appreciated.

Here are some pictures of the training program.
