As our summers get warmer some of our people have asked for shorts to be provided as part of our uniform. I’m pleased to say that #TeamWAST will soon be able to access shorts for use at work in the summer months to make working in the hot weather more comfortable.

CO’s helped free a Canada Goose after it became entangled in a fishing net on Mill Lake in #Abbotsford. The CO tied a rope to the boardwalk & swam to the bird. He cut the net free, which had been wrapped around its legs & across its back. The goose swam away, exhausted but safe.
