A few major appointments have been confirmed for the Wawa Volunteer Fire Department.
In their meeting last night, Wawa Municipal Council approved the appointment of three new firefighters - Jason Crack, Kayley East, and William Moore - as well as the promotion of Paul Weaver to Captain, and the appointment of Pierre Gauthier as Deputy Fire Chief.
Fire Chief Kevin Sabourin says the appointments address some vacancies.
Chief Sabourin notes the new firefighters were chosen through a recruitment drive in the fall - which he says saw "quite a few individuals" apply - while the new captain and deputy chief were internally posted promotions.
