Fire Brigade
We normally rush out to help you, but with the recent passing of SFF Garry Jackson you the Community came out in force to help us, and we would like to thank all the local businesses, community groups and individuals who assisted us with ensuring Garry received an appropriate service, and we couldn’t have done it without you.
Garry’s service in the Martinborough Volunteer Fire Brigade to the Martinborough Community fell just short of 50 years, and he is missed by us all. At the bottom of the article are some contacts if you need help.
The Brigade has had a steady couple of months with Rescue, Medical as well as our usual Fire calls, and it is timely to remind you all, that despite the rain falling as this is written, there is still a TOTAL FIRE BAN in place for the Wairarapa that is unlikely to change in the short term.
You can always see the fire status at www.checkitsalright.nz, please note you may be responsible for all costs should a fire escape and get out of control.
Remember we are always on the lookout for people interested in giving back to the community, and are able to offer a variety of options if this is you, even if you work out of town. Have you and your partner thought about job sharing being a Firefighter with one available during the day and the other at night ?? We train on a Tuesday night at 7pm so come on down and see us.
