FireSmart Contests

Township of Spallumcheen Council is committed to supporting emergency preparedness and  we are pleased to announce- 2 FireSmarting contests launching May 2, 2022.  Township Council is asking residents to work at FireSmarting their properties and in doing so, be entered to win prizes.

 “It’s a great time to get people thinking about FireSmarting before fire season is fully here.” Advised Mayor Christine Fraser. “FireSmarting is so important because we are surrounded by forested areas and we have seen countless examples of how people have completed FireSmarting on their property and it made the difference in being able to save their homes.”

 Two contests will be launching May 2, 2022, one for Spallumcheen property owners and one for Spallumcheen youth aged 5-18.
