Thank You to the Clarence Valley community for your support of our Bunnings BBQ held yesterday May 2nd. Also a huge thank you to Bunnings for their donation to our Brigade of an ' IGLOO Bunnings Trade 19L Water Jug'. This item will ensure that our members and pilots have ice and cold water available to them especially during fire incidents where aircraft are required to support ground crews in fire suppression.

Our Brigade is having a Bunning's Community BBQ this Saturday 2nd May and another BBQ June 13th 2026. We are proud of our role within the Clarence Valley Rural Fire Service and when you buy a sausage sanger in support it raises valuable funds for our Aviation Brigade.

Members of the Clarence Valley Aviation Brigade are excited to acquire an upgrade in our fire fighting equipment in the form of a new Fire Fighting Gel Hopper. This hopper has replaced an older model that had become unserviceable. The new Fire Fighting Gel Hopper will greatly enhance our ability to load faster and more efficiently the fire fighting aircraft with gel and water.

The hopper was built from the ground up by Roger and Elijah Hobday of iSpray Ag Solutions which is a locally family owned and run small business that can be found at 66 Pound Street Grafton.

Our thanks extends to iSpray Ag Solutions for this amazing piece of equipment https://www.isprayag.com.au/
