Glenboro South Cypress Fire Department
The Glenboro South Cypress Fire Department composed of up to 25 dedicated casual (volunteer) members provides fire protection to the citizens of the Village of Glenboro and the Municipality of Glenboro South Cypress. It is a member of the Turtle Mountain Mutual Aid and as such provides mutual aid to the neighboring fire departments on request. Members are alerted to calls by a 911 dispatch via the U Responding alert over their cell phones. Members will respond to the hall if they are available.
The Department is a member of the Canadian Fire Chiefs, the Manitoba Fire Chiefs, and an active supporter of the Manitoba Fire Fighters Burn Fund.
The Glenboro South Cypress Fire Department has evolved a long way since the late 1800s. The new fire hall allows the department to house all their equipment in one location and provides space for bi-monthly meetings and training.
