15.01.2022 Last Sunday the Brigade checked the fire trails up on to and along a section of the Black Range (the eastern side of our Brigade area). Cleared some trees and checked access. Trails in good order. The Brigade are in the process of checking access and the state of all fire trails in our area.

12.01.2022 THIS IS HOW TO PREPARE A BUSH FIRE PLAN. THESE ARE AVAILABLE IN OUR BUSH FIRE INFORMATION PACKS.

09.01.2022 A vacant block in the village which had become dangerously over grown was cleared and our Brigade were asked to do the pile burn. Completed safely, but a difficult job as the radiant heat and embers had to be carefully managed with wooden fences and other structures so close. Our Captain lighting up.
