New look fire truck Over the past two months, Victoria Harbour's 1961 Chevrolet Spartan fire truck has undergone a complete refurbishing by John Frlic of the Har- bour. The truck has now been placed back in service after receiving a major body and paint job as well as minor engine repairs. During the period that the truck was out of service, fire protection for the village was provided by Tay Township's Waubaushene and Old Fort brigades. As well as the new look for the fire truck, the Harbour's volunteer firefighters are now equipped with "pagers" to notify them of a fire rather than the general alarm siren that has been used over the years.
