Title based on caption
Collected by editorial for use in a January 2002 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
Caption from metadata: "Mark Lambert, a firefighter at Burnaby Fire Hall 1, adds another Christmas tree to the bonfire at the department's first annual tree chipping event. Lambert said the fire was only supposed to be symbolic, but when the chipper didn't show up on Saturday, all the used trees were burned. He said the fire did serve as an educational eye-opener though, to show people how quickly and intensely a dried tree can burn."

Collected by editorial for use in a January 2003 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
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."
