MIDDLESEX CENTRE FIRE SERVICES
When Emergencies happen, you want professionally trained personnel that are ready at any moment to protect the lives and property of the residents of Middlesex Centre. This is where the On Call Firefighters of Middlesex Centre come in.

As Fire Prevention Awareness Month comes to a close we remind you that safety comes from a community working together and dedicating itself to a better tomorrow
MIDDLESEX CENTRE ARCHIVES
Each November, we remember those who served in all wars. The peaceful society we enjoy today has been created by the efforts and sacrifices of generations of Canadians who put their lives on the line in the cause of peace and freedom around the world.
 
2018 is the 100th Anniversary of Armistice – the end of WWI. The Archives has compiled a list of our municipality’s residents who died in the Great War. This list includes their parents, home address, unit and date of death. We are looking for their stories and photos.  
 
Middlesex Centre Archives holds numerous Honour Rolls and Memorial Plaques. Please stop by the Archives to view or to research.
