The community is invited to mark International Women’s Day at the second annual Inspire event hosted by local first responders Saturday, March 4 at the Central York Fire Services station in Aurora.
Members of the Central York Fire Services (CYFS), York Regional Police, York Region Paramedic Services and the Ontario Provincial Police will be at the CYFS Station 4-5 at 300 Earl Stewart Dr. from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to celebrate International Women's Day and the role that first responders play in keeping the community safe, secure and healthy.
"Learn how they do their jobs and how you could have a career as a first responder, too," CYFS said in a news release.
The event has something for everyone, including:
- Opportunity to visit with 20+ local and regional organizations, businesses and entrepreneurs who serve York Region and beyond;
- Demonstrations and equipment tours;
- Interactive activities, cosplayers;
- Free giveaways and a chance to win prizes;
- Burgers and more from the Casalingo Burger Food Truck.
This is a free event open to all members of the general public. The event will take place primarily indoors within the fire station but there will be activities set up outside of the station.
