Rolling proof that the Jaycees’ Trades Fair

works In drawing businesses together showed

up at this year’s event in the form of a new emergency vehicla being used by Thornhill
volunteer firefighters. They met the people from RSF Energy of Smithers at last year’s
Trades Fair and struck an agreement for RSF to build a 1,500 water tank for an inactive flat
deck truck the fire department owned. Result: a new tool for firefighters, and greater safety
for the community. Shown above with the truck are firefighter Carl Albright, RSF steel

RSF for new truck

TERRACE — With a greater
number of more complex booths,
there was no doubt in anyone’s
mind that the 18th Annual Ter-

’ race Jaycees Trades Fair was the
best one so far. But it wasn’t un-

til the Thornhill Volunteer Fire
Department drove up with the

~ latest addition to their fleet that

you could see the real value of
the fair. Getting people together
— business, industry and con-

- sumer.

This was probably best
described by Brian Taylor of
RSF Energy from Smithers who
said, “Had it not been for us
both being at the Trades Fair
last year, this thing probably
wouldn’t have come about. So I

would say it’s a real success”

story for the Trades Fair and
both of us.’’

What Taylor was referring to,
was the opportunity afforded by
last year’s fair that brought
together the fire department,
who had a 1983 five ton flat
deck truck, and RSF Energy,
who had the expertise to turn it
into an emergency vehicle. The
two parties discussed the pro-

ject, came up with a design and a
deal was struck.

When the project finally got
underway, it took about one
month for RSF to build and in-
stall a 1,500 gallon water tank
and storage cabinets on the back
of the truck before it was return-
ed to Thornhill, where volunteer
firefighters did the wiring and
plumbing and attached neces-
sary fixtures and painted it. The’
final touch was then added by
Rain Coast Signworks who did
the lettering. .

Assistant Fire Chief Claude
Mercereau said the volunteers
are proud of their latest addition
— they bought and paid for. it
themselves with money raised by
fighting fires and doing silvi-
culture work for the Ministry of
Forests.

He said they had the truck
ready for service on April 14 and
it made its maiden run to New ~
Remo on April 21 when it was
called out to fight a grass fire.
