15.01.2022 HARVEST SAFETY ALERT 28 November 2020 PLEASE: STOP, CHECK & DECIDE

14.01.2022 The devastation of last year’s fires has seen an increased interest in new members joining brigades across our region which has been great, but it also takes a lot of work by our volunteers to train our new members. This year our dedicated trainers have helped 6 new members at Splitters Creek pass their BF training, this couldn’t have been done without the help of other brigades too, especially Kathy Barnes at Lavington Rural Fire Brigade and our own Darryl Ward who have put in a lot of hours for our new members, with another group passing their qualifications on Sunday just gone. Thank you to our new members who have committed themselves to their training and to joining the NSW Rural Fire Service, we look forward to working with you all.

14.01.2022 Call Out: large crop fire at Jerilderie. A crew departed this afternoon at approximately 3pm with other brigades in our area including Lavington Rural Fire Brigade, Table Top Rural Fire Brigade, Thurgoona Rural Fire Brigade and will soon be departing Jerilderie for home and be ready to respond again with tomorrow’s predicted hot temperatures and strong winds. Thanks to those who were able to respond.

13.01.2022 This afternoon Splitters Creek held a function for its members and families attended by Superintendent Patrick Westwood District Manager NSW Rural Fire Service - Southern Border Team & Justin Clancy MP - Member for Albury who presented the NSW Premier Bushfire Emergency Citation, badges and caps to all our members who were involved in the disastrous Black Summer fires of 2019-2020. Our members participated, as did many others across the state, in dozens of strike teams from... South Eastern QLD to the Far South Coast of NSW, closer to home the devastating Green Valley fire that started near Jingellic and local fires in our area from August 2019 through until late February 2020. A citation is an award/commendation for outstanding service, hard work and devotion of duty. Also a number of members were acknowledged for becoming BF qualified, AF qualified, CLS qualified along with our four new junior members. Thank you to all who attended today and huge thanks to our local caterers who put on another great feed. Gladys Berejiklian
