This photo was taken as our crews kept a quiet vigil over their back burning efforts around Lithgow during Christmas.

Please continue to take care of yourself and your neighbours through the long months ahead #standingdown

19.01.2022 After a brief respite, it appears that the fire threat is again increasing. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the three people killed in the Snowy Mountains today. We hope that all crews who spend this long weekend on the fire ground are kept safe and the communities they’re protecting are spared a repeat of the recent devastation we’ve seen.

16.01.2022 Today’s crew left Glen Davis knowing that The Gospers Mountain Fire has now been contained. Having contributed over 1000 hours of fire fighting, Yetholme is a small but proud cog in the mighty machine that is the NSW RFS

04.01.2022 Just trying to reunite a pup with his family! Could local residents please keep an eye out for Nogzy! Our fur baby Nogzy has gone missing from my dads house in Walang (between Yetholme and Glanmire) this evening. He is very timid. If anyone sees him please call me ASAP on 0400 633 663. He is wearing a black collar with a name rage and my phone number. He is a part of our family and we are devastated. If you happen to see him, could you please call Molly

04.01.2022 While the fire danger map for today is encouraging the thunderstorm map isn't as pleasant. For assistance in floods and storms, call the NSW SES on 132 500. If it's a life-threatening emergency, dial 000.

02.01.2022 Get ready everybody, here it comes! We hope so anyway...
