(On the left is the Wembley Fire Department's 1965 Dodge Pumper. This was the first fire truck to be purchased new by the Town of Wembley. It replaced a fire engine loaned by the City of Grande Prairie in the early 1960's. Prior to that, the department utilized a wheeled cart known as a "Hose Wagon" for firefighting operations between 1950 and the early 1960's. The 65' pumper was purchased for $8,645 from the Saskatoon Fire Engine Company. Volunteer firefighter Martin Hein travelled to Saskatoon to purchase the truck. The 65' pumper remained operational until sometime in the late 1990s or early 2000s. It is shown above next to our 2020 E-One Typhoon which is only the second new purpose-built fire engine the Town had purchased in over 55 years. The Dodge pumper was sold sometime after its retirement. It wasn't until its discovery in a farmers field near Wembley in the 2010's that it was purchased back. It now remains in our possession as a restoration project. We are always looking for donations or help with the project, as we hope to restore this piece of firefighting and Wembley history.)
