Brockville – The Brockville Fire Department is hosting an information open house on their 2nd annual Belles & Ladders Girls Firefighting Camp being held this summer on Monday, April 7th.
The free summer camp runs from July 2-4, and aims to inspire and empower girls aged 15-18 to consider a career in the fire services.
The camp is free of charge for participants, and over three days, the participants will have hands-on training in skills they’d face as firefighters.
