In the Body Of Tesero they are active 28 policemen And three aspirants, the works on the barracks involved the portion of the building dedicated to the garage, the retaining wall and the parking lot. Completed in 2019, also due to the pandemic the inauguration was postponed to today. “The renovation work on the barracks – declared the commander Delvai – they were needed more than ever, due to water leaks into the garage. Thanks to the contribution of the then commander Ciro Doliana, of the two municipal administrations that followed one another and of the Province of Trento, today we have a beautiful and functional barracks. Today, however, we are also celebrating our 150th anniversary, a remarkable achievement. Since that April 24, 1874, many years have passed and many things have changed; the firefighters of Tesero have experienced difficult times: two world wars, fires and calamities up to the terrible tragedy of Stava and the Vaia storm, but the spirit that animated the firefighters of that time is the same as today. Now it’s our turn to pass on this spirit of volunteering and service to the younger generations so that our story can continue.”
“An important appointment – said Luigi Maturi – and also deeply felt by the community. 150 years of activity are truly a long time and I hope that the Corps can continue on its path for a long time. The inauguration of the barracks, however, represents a fundamental step for the Corps which can perform an even better service. However, the barracks must also be a place of involvement and a point of reference for the community as it was during the Vaia storm and Covid”.
The party will continue tomorrow too: throughout the day the barracks will open its doors to visitors and the little ones will be able to have fun and learn some secrets of the Fire Brigade in the activities of “Fireman for a day”.
