Brigade Exercises – 1966

Connacht Tribune
The three Kinvara Fire Wardens, Mr. Ritchie Johnston, Mr Mattie and Christie Ward, were last week the participants in a local fire-fighting exercise which was conducted by a visiting five-brigade crew. This fire-fighting exercise is an annual event and the visiting fire brigade demonstrated the various necessary procedures which are a part of saving lives and property. The scrutiny and experimental use of the local fire-fighting equipment attracted the attention of many onlookers.
