Hall Lake, PAGC receive $80,000 firefighting equipment donation
The La Ronge Regional Fire Department is donating approximately $80,000 worth of firefighter personal protective equipment (PPE) to Hall Lake and the Prince Albert Grand Council.
“The donated equipment originates from the result of our fire department receiving our new structural firefighting PPE earlier this year, which replaced all of our PPE that reached their 10-year life span,” Fire Chief Keaton Cloud said. “The donated PPE are the ones that have reached the end of service and we have quite a large inventory.”
Cloud explained the donation consists of structural firefighter boots, pants, coats, and helmets. He noted it costs an average of $3,000 to equip a single firefighter.
