How many members do you have?

What's been your toughest fire?
They're all tough but probably Jindabyne years ago. Once you get into mountain country they're all pretty tough.
Why do you volunteer?
When I go to fires it's because someone's in trouble, someone's having a problem. And I've volunteered since I left school.
What does your community mean to you?
Pretty much everything. I've got a lot of friends in the community and I'd do anything to help them. If there's a fire going around the state and someone's in trouble, I'd help them get out of it.
