Latest NewsFrom time to time we will detail some of our activities on this page. Vehicle & equipment familiarisation day
A number of Support members attended a regional vehicle and equipment familiarisation day at Westleigh Training Centre today. Members were shown all the workings of tankers and the multitude of equipment used in RFS activities. Topics covered included:
Pumps and hydraulics training day
It was an interesting and most enjoyable day for all involved. Support Brigade members receive awards
The awards recognised long service of 10 years or more. Recognition of long and dedicated service was also awarded in the form of the "National Medal". John A'Beckett (pictured) received his Third Clasp to the National Medal for 47 years service. Berowra Lions present cheque
This amount was shared amongst Fire Control and some local brigades, with each brigade (including Support Brigade) receiving $1000. The generosity of the Lions Club is greatly appreciated by us all. Berowra Tower spots fire started by lightning
This was reported in, and two teams entered the rugged bushland from different locations to investigate. Upon arrival they discovered a small, early fire located at the red pin - a remarkably accurate estimation of location! They were able to quickly extinguish the fire and prevent what could have been a much bigger problem. The photo below shows the small fire.
