Thanks to the team from Traralgon Fire Brigade - CFA Volunteers for visiting Erica to provide an informative presentation about Traralgon Salvage. It’s a valuable resource, understanding its capabilities and knowing how we can utilise it in our response is beneficial for everyone!

Over 1000 years of service was acknowledged on Saturday at the South Gippsland Group Dinner and Awards night.
A special highlight was the awarding of National Medals to four very deserving recipients.
The National Medal recognises long and diligent service as an operational firefighter in roles that carry inherent risk to self and others that share in the endeavour.
Recipients of the National Medal were: Foster Captain David Jones (third clasp – 45 years operational service), Foster Communications Officer Paul Austin (second clasp – 35 years operational service), Foster firefighter Kaylene Jones (first clasp – 25 years operational service), Tarwin Lower & District Captain Mick Moore (medal – 15 years operational service).
Special thanks were especially extended to the families of members.
“Tonight we recognise not only individuals but also celebrate Brigades, Groups and the families of our members," South Gippsland Commander Andrew McCartney said.
“A CFA Volunteer’s family is every bit as selfless and generous as our valued volunteers.
“Tonight’s awards recognise some of those who are challenging themselves with relatively new endeavours, whilst also celebrating those that “have been there and done that”.
“Some have contributed what amounts as a lifetime and their service has done a lot to uphold and strengthen the iconic brand that is CFA.
“…CFA, your community and your brigade thank you for your service.”
