The latest Mundaring Fire School training calendar is attached.

Many thanks to those members and their families who have already indicated that they will be attending this fundraiser. While the event commences at 1100 hours, the Parky will be open from 1000 hours. The Austin (plus some members) will be on site from 1030 hours, so hopefully will be able to secure a table. Failing that, camping chairs and picnic rugs are acceptable, so please bring those along if you have them. The organisers have also advised that there will be overflow parking available at the Parkerville Primary School.

All members and their families are welcome to come along at whatever time and for however long, you would like to attend, and simply enjoy the day. Can members please wear their turnout pants, brigade polo, black t-shirts or blue bushfire shirts and comfortable shoes. The forecast for Saturday is 35 and sunny, so hats and sunscreen are advisable.

Looking for volunteers to assist on the day, if available can you please contact Vicki.

In response to the efforts of volunteers throughout the recent Wooroloo incident, the Chidlow Tavern will be holding a Thank-you event on Saturday the 17th of April. More details will follow as they become known.

Due to a scheduling issue, the this event has been rescheduled for Saturday 5th of June.

The Event will still be held at the Mundaring Recreation Ground, Mundaring Weir Road, commencing at 1700 hours. (In the event of unfavourable weather conditions, the event will be moved to the Arena).

The format for the evening will be along similar lines as previous years with the tug-of-war between Brigades, State Emergency Service and all other challengers for the Fire & Emergency Services trophy. At the completion of the games there will be a presentation of Life Membership Awards, followed by the evening meal.

The catering for the event will be handled by WA Spit Roast. They will be supplying meat, salads, bread, desserts, condiments, cutlery and plates. Beer, wine and soft drink will be supplied. Please note there will be no charge.

A Bouncy Castle has been hired and a DJ will be providing the music.

Please RSVP to Vicki with numbers attending by Wednesday the 14th of April, and whether you would be available for our tug-of-war team.
