We will be holding our AGM on Sunday 7th June from 10am, and we’d love to see some new faces come along!

Have you ever thought about joining the brigade or wondered what the RFS is all about? This is a great chance to meet the crew, have a chat, and see firsthand what we do for our community.

You don’t need experience — just a willingness to get involved, learn new skills, and be part of a great local team. Whether it’s firefighting, helping at community events, or supporting behind the scenes, there’s a role for everyone.

Come down, say hello, and see what being part of the brigade is all about! 👨‍🚒🔥

Happy Mother’s Day!

This Mother’s Day, we celebrate the strength, dedication and compassion of mums everywhere, but especially those in our family.

Across the state, thousands of mothers, grandmothers, mothers-in-law, stepmothers and aunties give their time to help protect their communities. Whether they're on the frontline or supporting behind the scenes their contributions are extraordinary.

Today, we thank them for all they do, not just as RFS members, but as leaders and role models in our brigades and communities.

Congratulations to 2 of our own members on passing there assessment today.

Today, members from across the district undertook practical assessments in the Crew Leader Wildfire and Crew Leader Supervision qualifications.

These assessments challenged members through a range of realistic incident scenarios, including briefing crews whilst enroute to incidents, conducting size ups, establishing control, implementing tactics, maintaining crew safety and communicating strategies effectively.

Reaching this stage is a significant achievement, with volunteers first completing the Foundational and Technical Programs before progressing into supervision and leadership roles.

A huge thank you to all members involved today - not only those being assessed, but also the many supporting volunteers who helped make the day a success. From evidence gatherers and role players through to communications operators and assessors, your contribution ensured valuable and realistic training outcomes for everyone involved.

Well done to all members for your professionalism, teamwork and commitment to developing the leadership capability of our district.

Saturday, Clybucca 2, along with our neighbouring brigade Frederickton, attended the North Coast Trucking Social Club’s Truck Driver Memorial Day.

Being part of the RFS isn’t just about responding to incidents—it’s also about getting involved in the community and supporting local events, both within and beyond our area.

It was great to be part of such a close-knit, family-oriented group and to show our support on the day.North Coast Trucking Social Club

Today Clybucca 7 joined forces with neighbouring crews for another hazard reduction burn. This time at Kundabung.
These burns are a great chance to keep our skills sharp, test out different techniques, and work together as one solid team.
Safe to say—it all went off without a hitch 👌

Today Clybucca 2 & 7 were asked to assist our neighbouring brigade Yarrahapinni/Stuart’s Point with a hazard reduction burn.

Burns like this are vital in helping us continue to sharpen our skills and refine our techniques, ensuring we’re ready when it matters most.

Great teamwork and collaboration across brigades 👍
