19.01.2022 The Brigade have been busy working with the Shire preparing to undertake a planned burn in the Baths Rd Reserve . With fuel loadings at dangerous levels planned burning is essential to reduce the fire risk . As soon as conditions allow we will be conducting the burn . The last burn conducted by the Brigade in the reserve was in 2015 . These burns form part of the reserve management plan however the burn won't go ahead if the prescription conditions are not met
