Background
 In 2011-2012, the Towns of Port au Port East and Port au Port West-Aguathuna-Felix Cove collaborated and formed one regional fire department, called the Port au Port Regional Volunteer Fire Department.
The department provides fire services to both Port au Port East and West and offers the outlying communities of Campbell’s Creek, Point au Mal, and Fox Island River fire services based on fee-for-service protocols.
The Port au Port Volunteer Fire Department is actively looking for new volunteers and currently consists of 12 firefighters. We provide the following services: Defensive/Offensive Firefighting in our area of responsibility and Vehicle Extrication for the entire Port au Port Peninsula, and have mutual aid agreements with the Lourdes and Cape St George Fire Departments.
Training
Training is every Wednesday and Sunday from 7:00 to 8:00 pm at the Fire Hall in Port au Port West.Members of our fire department participate in scenario-based training exercises throughout the year. Our training sessions offer firefighters a minimum training standard, which is required prior to participating in firefighting activities, and additional training offers Standard First Aid, Level C CPR/AED training.
Urgent need for new recruits. Stop by the town office or call 648-2731 to sign up.
