Rain, wind and winter chill didn’t stop the team at Warneet Blind Bight CFA, who opened their doors to the community for a lively Open Day on Sunday 29 June.
Captain Mark Konieczny said they had a bigger turnout than they were expecting.
“Sometimes we do these things, and you might get one or two people, but we probably had about 50 odd people come through,” he said.
“We had a few showers first up in the morning, but then it cleared up and it was quite a nice day.
“Open Day is something we do on a regular basis because we’re always trying to get recruits… We are 100 per cent volunteers down there.
“So we open up the station and do some demonstrations and let people come along and have a look and see what we do. Hopefully, we can get some membership out of it.”
