Fire and Police Services

Feb 22, 2021

The Fire Station is located on the corner of Chief Joseph Snake Road and Hello Road. It is equipped with a Fort Gary pumper truck and an ambulance. Georgina Island First Nation employs two full-time firefighters and a team of fully trained volunteers to assist in the event of a fire.
 
A trained volunteer First Response Team also responds to 911 emergencies.
 
Both teams are always looking for volunteers, so please contact the Fire Hall if you are a Georgina Island resident and are interested in joining.
