Cambridge Ontario firefighters responded to a possible fire in the south end of town May 25 at noon. P5 reported heavy black smoke as they pulled out of the hall. A large pile of tires, a number of vehicles, and trees were burning on arrival. Two tankers from Ayr were requested to augment the water supply. I arrived on scene 25 minutes after the dispatch (16 mile drive), just as crews had declared the fire was knocked down. Box 690 provided rehab, served 69 cold drinks, and 25 subs to the 30 firefighters on scene.
