Crescent Point Energy made a donation to the Weyburn Fire Department Wednesday night.

A cheque for $5,000 was presented to Weyburn’s Fire Chief Simon Almond. The money is to help cover the costs with the Volunteer Fire School, which was held here in Weyburn in September.

“The school had volunteer members from all over the province come down for three days, for a training symposium with a trade show, and lots of training,” said Jeff Reimer, who is a production engineer with Crescent Point Energy and a volunteer firefighter.

The presentation was made before the fire department began their regular training sessions.
