To start the demonstration off. Tommy Reid and Kent Peterson took the two Orangeville fire engines and went around the streets of Orangeville sounding the sirens as if there was a fire. Both engines ended up at the Orangeville City Park where cpt. George, a retired fire chief from salt Lake now working out of the U.S.U. with all volunteer fire departments of the state, had built alarge fire for the demonstration. The type of extinguishers used were a Class ABC extinguisher which have a capability of putting out any type of fire. The use of the engines was to demonstrate foam which is a new way fire departments have of putting out fires, such as hay stacks, and burning roofs where a lot of water should not be used. The extinguishers demonstrated are eventually to b sold by members of the Orangeville Fire Department as a fund raising campaign to help buy equipment for the department.
