The Penticton Indian Band Fire Department was started in 1990 by volunteer PIB Band members when funding was secured for a new building, equipment and fire truck. Today the Fire Department consists of a core eight volunteers from our community.
The PIB Fire Department is an important part of the Emergency Services Committee and exists to enhance the quality-of-life of the community through prevention, emergency response services, education and training. Annual funding is received from AANDC (formerly INAC).
