Knutsford Community Response Society
Notice of AGM

January 22, 2025

7:00 pm at the Knutsford Hall


We invite you to the first Annual General Meeting of your Knutsford CommunityResponse Society.

Our purpose is to protect the safety of our wonderful community of Knutsford. We do this by providing organizational support to KIRT [Knutsford Initial Response Team]. KIRT is our team of volunteers who respond quickly to emergency situations e.g.wildfires before they spread.


The AGM will be divided into several parts:

1. Greetings from TNRD Director Doug Haughton and overview by Janice Winger of TNRD about the Cooperative Community Response approach we are part of with TNRD and BC Wildfire Service.

2. Brief reporting on the activities of our first year.
a. Capacity building by KIRT – recruiting, training, practicing, responding to callouts during the 2024 fire season.
b. Getting our new society up and running, including finances.

3. Election of Directors to the Board of KCRS to fill vacancies and to fill gaps.

4. Open discussion, questions and answers – developing priorities and goals for the coming fire season of 2025 and the longer term future.

Please come if you are able. Invite your neighbours.


If you are not yet a KCR Society member, you can sign up at the meeting at no cost. Or you can sign up here.


We appreciate your support!
