How many active members do you have?
There's about 17 at the moment working on the ground.
What's been your toughest fire?
A long time ago, but recently the one right here beside us at Merriganowry. It was extremely hot, extremely quick, windy and it really got the adrenaline going.
Why do you volunteer?
I think it's just a community thing. Move into the bush, become a part of the brigade, the closest brigade to you.
What does your community mean to you?
We all get together whenever there's something. Whether it's a bushfire, or a Christmas party, or someone's in need of something. We're just all here together. That's the main thing.
