On Tuesday night we received our new Milwaukee battery operated chainsaws and pole saw.

These vital pieces of equipment will be used on the fireground, during storm clean up and for training our volunteers.

Thank you to our AMAZING Tamborine Mountain community yet again.

Yesterday we traveled around the Mountain with Santa to see all the good girls and boys (and parents too). For the annual Tamborine Mountain Emergency Services Lolly Run 2025

Thank you to those who waved as we were making our way through the streets. Your love and appreciation given to all our emergency services was felt by all.

See you again next year!
