The date for the 2018 RUI Exercise has been announced as Saturday the 6th of October. The scale of the exercise is being increased this year, and will involve brigades from The Shire of Mundaring, City of Swan, and Shire of Chittering.

This is an interesting and valuable exercise, and provides a fantastic opportunity for new Crew Leaders to gain some exposure to large scale incidents ahead of the fire season. If you are interested in participating, please contact Adrian.

Attached is the Operations Doctrine Monthly Bulletin for July 2018.

The latest Mundaring Fire School calendar is attached.

The Brigade has been invited to participate in the Mundaring Scouts 100 Year Celebrations. It has been suggested that the Brigade attend with an appliance, possibly even the Austin. Details for the event are still being determined, however if you are interested please contact Michelle or Adrian.

A team for the City to Surf has now been registered. Interested members are encouraged to sign-up and participate in this fantastic team event.

  Date: Sunday 26th August 2018
  Start time: 8:10am

The registration fee is $49-55 per person. It has been agreed that the Brigade will cover 50% of the registration fee for members.
