Fire, Fire

No not really, we were visited this week by the Cedar Creek Rural Fire Service. The cubs were given a presentation on bushfires and safety.

The videos were great and showed how rapidly a fire can catch on.

Each cub was presented with a bushfire safety pack and it included a couple of models.

The best bit was to come. At the end, each cub were given a chance to use the fire hose on the truck the fire fighters brought up. I was waiting for the smaller cubs to be lifted.off the ground, but the fire fighters were holding tight.

Now if it wasn't wet enough already with the rain on Tuesday, after 20+ cubs hosing the parade ground it was like January rain.

It was a great experience and one we will do again.

Thanks to Peter Davidson(aka Redback) for organising this on short notice. Our planned outing to Beenleigh fire station was put on hold.
