LETHBRIDGE COUNTY – Since Friday, Feb. 9, the Barons and District Fire Department has been back in service in Lethbridge County.

The Department had previously been operating exclusively in the Village of Barons.

“As the County moves to implement the most efficient regionalized emergency services system possible, we are confident that the Barons and District Fire Department will be a valuable asset in our region,” Reeve Lorne Hickey said.
