Hospital, fire department both figure in this week’s Kapuskasing history feature

MyKapHearstNow.com

This week’s Kapuskasing history feature is two pieces of good news from the Northern Times issue of February 7th, 1962.

One is a front page photo of a Knights of Columbus donation to the hospital of $800.00. It was intended to furnish a room in the renovated section of the hospital.

The other piece of good news comes from the fire department. It received honourable mention in a national fire prevention contest, and was second in Ontario.

Fire Chief Omer Poulin had a long list of people and organizations to thank for their help.

And we thank the Kapuskasing Public Library for allowing us to use its archives for our weekly history feature.
