Lions Bay Fire Rescue (LBFR) is a volunteer fire department that protects an area, which spans 15 kilometers of the Sea to Sky highway between West Vancouver and Furry Creek. We respond to emergencies that include fire, auto-extrication, rope-rescue, and medical-aid.  We are highly trained and as such require countless hours of training to be prepared for these many types of emergencies.

As you can imagine, training in these areas is a constant challenge and one that we certainly enjoy, but an even greater challenge can be to provide the proper funding for the specialized equipment and training that we require.
 
Funding for Lions Bay Fire Rescue is through the tax base of the Village of Lions Bay, Provincial Emergency Preparedness funding, and the annual Fire Fighter’s Day fundraiser.
 
The Firefighter’s Day fundraiser is an all day event on Saturday September 8, 2007 from 2pm to 10pm at the Lions Bay Beach. Events throughout the day include children's activities (face painting, junior combat challenge, and bounce castle) and an auto extrication demonstration.

We will be selling hot dogs, hamburgers, pop and chips and providing an adult beverage area for upward of 1000 people, with a live band and - best of all - an opportunity to meet the Lions Bay Volunteer fire fighters and have a great time.
