Press Release - Lanark County Paramedic Service

Lanark County Paramedic Service (LCPS) is participating in the Lanark County Female First Responders Camp. This is a two-day immersive camp for self-identifying females ages 15 to 20 who reside in Lanark County. The camp will be held on the evening of October 13 and the full day on October 14, 2023. 

“The goal is to provide a glimpse into firefighting, paramedics, and law enforcement and encourage young women to see these as viable career opportunities,” explains Paramedic Superintendent Amanda Taylor. “This is the first year we’ve been involved in the camp and we are looking forward to the weekend.” 

The camps are led by the Lanark County Fire Departments in collaboration with Ontario Provincial Police, Smiths Falls Police Services and LCPS.
