Caption from metadata: "Captain Ward Rossiter and Paul Rushton, of the Burnaby Fire Department, admire their handiwork at the department's annual bonfire of discarded Christmas trees, at Firehall No. 1. While firefighters are more accustomed to extinguishing fires than setting them, the event raises money for the burn unit at Children's Hospital, as well as awareness about the importance of keeping the trees well-watered."
