changes

Well, I must say I am pleased about how quiet MPHG has been lately. We have not had any "unit activations" (i.e. funeral, LODD) for a while. Our group was honoured to have a role in the OCC event this year. It has been a welcomed respite after the extremely emotional funeral for our brother, Al Watson.

Even though we have been quiet, we have been making changes. We were allowed to become part of the Provincial Remembrance Day celebrations. We had our new applicants join us for drill during the fall. From that process, we have 3 more members! Unfortunately, our drill sargent had to leave us temporarily so we will have a new drill sargent for approximately 18 months.

The Professional Paramedics of Winnipeg and Central RHA recently gifted $1000 to us - thank you. We continue to need financial support for our activities and to dress more members. All our sponsors believe in us and our vision - thank you.

Changes are positive. We are growing and improving our ability to respond. Our role of representing Paramedics remains unchanged.
