Fire, disaster mitigation meetings on

RESIDENTS of Glasshouse Country are strongly encouraged to attend a bushfire information session at Mooloolah Public Hall on Sunday October 15 at 10am.

Acting Inspector Aaron Sheehan, bushfire mitigation manager for the North Coast region will be leading the session, and with bushfire conditions set to intensify over coming months this presentation from QFES (Queensland Fire & Emergency Services) will share valuable information and knowledge about how the community can best prepare for the bush fire season ahead.

The hour-long morning session will give members of the public the opportunity to ask questions and gain insights directly from OFES bushfire mitigation officers, and will benefit both long term and less seasoned locals to be ready and prepared should fire disaster occur.

Jason Carroll, events officer for MVCA said that part and parcel of living in a country town, surrounding by bushland and National Park is for the community to be well prepared for not only flooding but bushfires. Bacon and egg burgers will be on offer from the Mooloolah Lions from 9.30am for all those attending.  For more information go to facebook.com/MooloolahCommunity or call MVCA on 5494 7822.
