Support for the Brigade

Over the last 12 to 18 months we have had a huge amount of support from both the local community and businesses. This support has enabled us to provide new and replacement equipment to ensure we continue to support the community through emergency response and above all do this in as safe an environment as possible. I would like to acknowledge the support provided by the following organisations:
  • Elmore Field Days Committee
  • Northgate (Fosterville) Mining
  • Metricon Homes
  • Gilmacs Pty Ltd
  • Goornong CFA Night Owls
  • CFA Region 2
  • Broader Goornong Community
  • Volunteers of the Goornong Brigade
Without the support of these people many of our achievements over the past 12 months would not have been possible.
A reminder to all that we are less than 100 days away from the start of the Fire Danger Period.
