Cumberland Fire Chief Mike Williamson and Cowichan Bay Fire Chief Charlie Brown sharing their years of auto extrication knowledge and skills with neighbouring fire depts (Comox Fire Rescue, Union Bay Fire Rescue and Ships Point Fire Dept)
The Cumberland Volunteer Fire Department has been protecting Village residents since the streets were dirt and bucket brigades were our greatest defence. The Cumberland Volunteer Fire Department now has 30 paid on call volunteers and a full time Fire Chief. The Fire Department also issues
- outdoor burning permits for yard waste fires, campfires, and industrial fires, and
- fireworks permits.
Cumberland Fire Rescue also coordinates the Village’s Emergency Program.
Contact Fire Chief Mike Williamson at 250-336-2531 to inquire about volunteering.
Recently our Fire Department worked alongside Comox Fire Rescue, Union Bay Fire Rescue and Ships Point Fire Department to work on certification and skills training in Rescue and Auto Extrication. Great job to all 13 students who successfully completed their Module 3 certification in Rescue and Auto Extrication.
