Great response from our members at Yulecart Rural Fire Brigade and Ardachy Brigade today for a car fire on the Dartmoor road. The flames were quickly bought under control, with Hamilton Fire Brigade coming out with their thermal imaging camera to make sure the ute was sufficiently cooled and safe to be towed away. Thanks for Victoria Police for their help with traffic control. No one was injured in the incident.

Great see our members come out on this chilly night to complete their tree hazard awareness refresher. Firefighters are required to complete this awareness session every three years which provides important tree safety information for all personnel operating on the fireground.

Congratulations to Jaydan Mirtschin (pictured with the drip torch) for completing his General Firefighter Course (GFF) recently at the Penshurst. Jaydan is the first member of our brigade to go through the GFF pathway. The BMT thank him for working with the brigade as this was a learning experience for us as well. If you've ever thought about Volunteering with CFA, Yulecart is always looking for members and it's never too late to join, so don't hesitate to reach out to us.

Great to have everyone along tonight and what a great evening!

Huge thanks to our SES volunteers for showing us how it was done. They showed the complicated procedure of cutting open a car and demonstrating a rescue. Their attention to detail is outstanding and dedication to safety was not compromised.

It was great to have many other brigades join us tonight with well over 30+ people where in attendance.

Special thanks to our captain and MC for putting the night together. Great stuff John!

Hope everyone enjoyed the BBQ and had a great night.
