Some of the brigade members of the Nagambie CFA joined in on the festivities of the Nagambie Primary School Winter Solstice Lantern Festival last evening. Captain Koala was a real hit with the kids and adults alike, leading the march around the grounds. The kids explored the tanker and asked lots of questions. It was a great night. 🧑‍🚒 🚒 🐨

As a yearly event, the Nagambie CFA assist with collecting donations for the Good Friday Appeal. This is to raise funds for the Royal Children’s Hospital to ensure that they can continue to provide the much needed support to children and their families.

Please dig deep as we make our way around the township of Nagambie this evening from 16:30, rattling our tins and giving the local kids a treat in return. You will also find us at the traffic lights in town tomorrow morning from 9am until mid day.

Fire risk: Due to a Transmission Control Module (TCM) programming issue, the transmission may rev faster than intended causing a loss of motive power and transmission fluid to leak. A transmission fluid leak in the presence of an ignition source could lead to a vehicle fire whilst driving.
