The Village of Radium Hot Springs’ long-time fire chief has retired.

Dave Dixon spent 37 years as fire chief for the village.

A first responder program was also introduced to assist residents during medical emergencies.

According to Village staff, Dixon will still be a big part of the department and will continue to respond to calls and participate in events.
