The Brigade is planning to hold a Station Open Day on Saturday the 14th of September. The open day will be an opportunity for the local community to visit our station, learn about our brigade and what we do, and take home some important bushfire safety information. The day will also include many activities for kids, and a cooked breakfast / sausage sizzle.

Planning is still in the early stages, so if you are interested in assisting please contact Matt.
