-None+===== Annual Skills Refresher ===== 
 + 
 +With the end of the fire season it is time to start looking towards completing the Annual Skills Refresher. Whilst there is plenty of time for this to be completed, it is hoped that everyone will be able to tick off the various skills during normal training activities. Please keep this in mind when attending training and hazard reduction burns, and take the opportunity to have a qualified member witness your demonstration of the various skills that are required.
