Community members in Shelburne County took hospitality to the next level earlier this week, when they quickly arranged a 60th birthday dinner for an American firefighter who has been battling a massive wildfire in the area.

Kevin Pezanowski, who is from New Hampshire, had travelled to Nova Scotia last week with a crew of about 17 firefighters from the northeastern United States to help fight the blaze.

Nick Brand, who had been volunteering by serving breakfast to firefighters at the local arena, said he was at the right place at the right time when he heard about the firefighter's milestone birthday on Monday.

"A firefighter named Lily, she came up to me and just mentioned how it was Kevin's 60th birthday," Brand told CBC Radio's Information Morning Nova Scotia.
