Fire brigades compete

Well, the fire brigades have really been in the news lately. Last issue we covered the Nelson Brigade centennials and this month we have the annual Nelson-Marlborough Provincial Fire Brigades' Association competitions at Nelson. Top honours were won by Kaikoura, and Blenheim (last year's champions) were only one point behind.
