It’s been a few years now since the Montrose CFA have been able to open up the station to the community, but at last, next Sunday the crews at Montrose Fire Brigade will be opening up their doors to the public.
To say they’re excited is an understatement. So why not swing by on Sunday 23 October between 10am and 3pm.
Brigade Community Safety Coordinator Eddie Tichelaar said their main theme on the day is to “make memories for children”.
There are a number of fun things for the children to do, along with a number of fire appliances from Montrose, Upwey and Yellingbo to provide an insight into all aspects of the CFA’s work.
There will also be an LPG flare off display and a number of vintage fire engines alongside a vintage fire equipment display.
A sausage sizzle, coffee and drinks will also be available on the day.
The Montrose Township Group will also be there on the day with helpful tips on how to prepare for emergencies other than bushfire.
