As many areas in southern Manitoba experience wildfires due to extremely dry conditions, the Reeve of Mossey River is extending his thanks to everyone battling the fires.

Ron Kostyshyn says some fire crews have been at work for days at a time to control fires

 “The fire departments and various communities are trying to control numerous fires in our Municipality – anywhere from the Oakbank country to the east part of our municipality up to the northern parts and the western parts – so there’s a number of municipalities. More importantly, the fire departments who dedicate their times to help out and to deal with what I would call a historical event in our municipality for the amount of fires we’re putting up with.”

Kostyshyn is thanking all fire departments in the area, along with landowners who have come to assist, for all of their hard work and dedication.

“From the staff of the Mossey River Municipality and council, we appreciate all the hard work they’ve done.”
