15.01.2022 A very special radio transmission has just been received by our FireComm operators with an important message for parents: "FireComm, this is Santa, hohoho-ver"... "Santa, this is FireComm, send, over" "FireComm, I'm mobile to Tasmania, please tell all children it's time for bed, hohoho-ver" "Roger, Santa, safe travels and merry Christmas... FireComm out". #merrychrismas #christmaseve

For the period between 5pm Saturday and 5pm Sunday.... 48 hour heads up for Severe Weather occurring in Tasmania.

15.01.2022 Rosebery SES Unit particpated in the Christmas Parade in Queenstown on Christmas Eve. We worked with the Zeehan and Queenstown units by doing traffic control and also the West Coast Council. The weather may not have been the greatest, but we all had fun regardless.

07.01.2022 Tonight we at Rosebery SES Unit lightly trained with Zeehan SES Unit and even had a visit from regional staff. The vehicles were washed, the shed was decorated in tinsel and to celebrate we had a barbecue. Well done to all units in 2020, hope 2021 is a better year for us all.

03.01.2022 Training last night involved a debrief from the Unit Manager's meeting that was attended by both the Unit Manager and Deputy Unit Manager. We were also introduced to our new radios. We also did knots and stayed inside as the weather was horrible. Photos by C. Scherger
