Twenty-two volunteer firefighters have been working nonstop since the station opened last week.
"Getting in and out of town here is a lot easier than having to drive out north or out west to the fire station and possibly have to backtrack to respond to the fire call," said Benth.
It's safe to say operations are a lot smoother at this station, which holds up to 11 fire trucks and provides other basic amenities.
"Exercise room, a day room as well, and three bedrooms when there's late night calls or when things get busy again like they did back in the last boom," said Benth.
