The Coastal Fire Center of the BC Wildfire Service has put a campfire ban in effect beginning Friday, July 12 at noon. Propane fire rings are still allowed.
Eight new fires have started in BC in the last 24 hours. It’s important that we do what we can to not overwhelm our firefighting resources. It could be a long, hot, dry summer.
If you see a fire on one our beaches, please call the non-emergency number at the fire hall (250.335.2611) and you will have the option to be connected with the fire patroller.
CSA and UL certified propane fire rings are permitted. They can be identified by their lack of smoke, sparks, and consistent flame.
