PIERCE MANUFACTURING INC. announced that it has teamed up with MAXIMETAL, INC., of Saint-Georges de Beauce, Quebec, Canada. Pierce will sell Saber® custom chassis to MAXIMETAL, which, in turn, will manufacture and mount its various firefighting body configurations onto the chassis. The completed apparatus will be marketed across Canada through the Pierce dealer network. Beginning this year, MAXIMETAL will offer pumper and pumper tanker configurations.

GLOBE, DUPONT PROTECTION TECHNOLOGIES (DUPONT), and the NATIONAL VOLUNTEER FIRE COUNCIL (NVFC) announced the final recipients in the 2015 Globe Gear Giveaway. The Friendship (IN) Volunteer Fire Department and the Rockaway Point (NY) Fire Department were each awarded four sets of new Globe turnout gear. Through this gear donation, the Friendship Volunteer Fire Department will be able to better protect its new and existing members with complete, fitted, compliant gear. The new turnout gear the Rockaway Point Fire Department receives will enable it to replace some of its outdated gear, keeping its members safer and allowing funds to be saved for other needs.

MIDWEST FIRE EQUIPMENT & REPAIR COMPANY (Midwest Fire), an SBA-certified woman-owned small business (WOSB), announced its partnership with the Minnesota State Fire Chiefs Association (MSFCA) to honor Assistant Chief Tate Mills of the Albertville (MN) Fire Department as the 2015 Fire Officer of the Year for departments covering an area with a population of fewer than 10,000. As part of the sponsorship, Midwest Fire provided funds toward Mills’s monetary stipend for leadership training.

Mills has been a member of the Albertville Fire Department for 18 years. For eight years, he was the paid-on-call fire chief for the city of Albertville while also working a full-time job from which he took every other Friday off to dedicate his time to the needs of the Albertville Fire Department. Sarah Atchison, owner and CEO of Midwest Fire, says, “It was gratifying to attend the awards banquet at the conference and meet Chief Mills. [He] was a very deserving candidate, and we look forward to seeing how he continues to grow in his career and inspire others. We hope this award helps him continue to develop his ambition.”
