This isn’t an opinion per se, just a recognition of the immense bravery many of our volunteer fire crew members display to support our underfunded and remote areas [“Wildfire service reports on blaze north of Powell River,” July 16].
Earlier this week, a small volunteer fire crew north of town saved our family cabin on Atrevida Road. That cabin holds generations of memories, and because of their bravery and dedication, those memories — and future ones — are still standing.
We know volunteer fire crews do this work not for praise, but out of service to our communities. However, we are profoundly grateful for their service.
