Bittern Fire Brigade

Take a moment to read the below post from our besties at Cribby CFA - it might not only save your car, but save some lil birdies too 🐣

On Wednesday Crib Point and Bittern Fire Brigade attended a call for a smoking car. The owner said the car smelt like it was burning and there was smoke coming out from the engine bay. On arrival we used a thermal imaging camera to pinpoint the source of the smoke, a smoldering animals nest of tightly packed dry straw, grass and sticks located between the chassis and the engine exhaust.
The car had been parked for a number of weeks giving time for critters to make it their new home.

If you car is parked for a few weeks, please take a minute to look under the hood for signs of bird or rodent activity.

THANK YOU BITTERNIANS 🙌🏻

What a fantastic day we had celebrating our Open Day today. We had so many amazing community members come through to support us.

Kids had a ball squirting the hose & being (temporarily) tattooed by our mini-Brigade members, as well as jumping their little hearts out on the impressively large jumping castle from Peninsula Jumping Castles 🏰🤸🏼‍♂️

We were fed a traditional aussie lunch of BBQ'd snags and kept well caffeinated by Marzy's (possibly the best coffee van on the Peninsula).

Special guests included Crib Point Fire Brigade Junior Fire Brigade members & Captain Rose. We were also graced with our wonderful friend from Balnarring CFA FF Hawkins who co-delivered a Fire Safety Essentials presentation

SES Hastings Unit and Victoria Police came with their awesome members to showcase their impressive rigs (we're talking about the vehicles 🤫)

We spoke to many locals about their fire plans and local risks and are so incredibly proud of the community we serve 💗

If you missed out but would like more information on how to Get Fire Ready or any other volunteer opportunities, pop down any Sunday morning and have a chat to our members 🥳
