We do not yet have a fire station. We are, however, another step closer. As of September 2009, we have a lease on land on Church Rd Black River . Watch this space....
We are currently awaiting Commissioning of our
new 41 unit. It is now a matter of waiting for a suitable occasion
for the presentation of vehicle and keys. (looks nice too).
Many
thanks to NRMA Insurance Community Help Grants for their significant
contribution toward the purchase of this vehicle
Our next goal is to raise some $100 000.00 plus to erect our fire station - (Stage 1)
Black River & District Rural Fire Brigade wish to acknowledge BHP Billiton's Community Support.
We now bid BHP farewell but welcome QLD Nickel.
