    On May 6, the Neepawa Fire Department was called to put out a grass fire  burning east of Brown Avenue by the Flats.  The week before, the fire department was doing a controlled burn just below where this fire started.
    On a related note,  Dauphin-Swan River-Marquett M.P. Inky Mark has declared 2008 the Year of the Volunteer Firefighter.  The riding’s volunteer firefighters will be recognized with a specially designed commemorative medal called the ‘Volunteer Firefighters Service Medal Dauphin-Swan River-Marquette.’
