Weyburn's Fire Chief has accepted the Deputy Fire Chief position in Swift Current.

     Denis Pilon says he took the job because he is ready for a change.  He's been the Chief in Weyburn for 18 years and says he was ready for some new challenges.

     Pilon says his first day is May 26th, and he is looking forward to working with the community.
