First-time pancake cook helps Roblin Fire & Rescue
More than 500 locals attended the Mothers' Day pancake breakfast at Roblin Fire & Rescue to support the spring fundraiser. The event showcased a new thermal imaging unit used to help firefighters locate people in smoke. A palm test on the display drew attention to the unit and a factoid noted the outfit cost per firefighter at 14 507 dollars not including training. The department was also called out Sunday afternoon while cleaning up.
