A huge thank you to Club Waitārere, Bill & Marie - Harcourts Levin and all the quiz teams for their incredible support.

Over the past six weeks, Club Waitārere has held a quiz night every Monday, raising an amazing $2,000 for our local fire brigade.

We are incredibly grateful for the time, effort and generosity that has gone into making this happen.

Thank you to everyone involved in organising the quiz nights and to all those who came along and supported them. What a fantastic community effort! ❤️

Great day if you generate power off a wind mill I suppose. Not a great day if your trampoline flys into a power line tho, make sure everything is secure outside. We have a bit of a breeze with some decent guests.

First night of Club Waitārere's 6 quiz nights, they have decided this year to donate the proceeds to our brigade. The money raised will be used to purchase outdoor tables for our crew and families to spend time together.

Thanks Club Waitārere and Bill & Marie Harcourts Levin.

Its not all lights, sirens and action! Sometimes its lights, camera action!

Home Fire Safety is important, having working smoke alarms really do save lives. Tonight the team visited a local to install smoke alarms to ensure they are safe.

Recruit Taine tonight doing his first install and home fire safety visit.

👋 New Zealand's annual test of the Emergency Mobile Alert (EMA) system will be sent on Sunday 14 June between 6pm-7pm to all capable phones and other SIM-connected devices.

⚠️ This test makes sure the EMA system works as it should nationwide, and helps keep you safe during future emergency events.

❗ If you have a hidden phone for your personal safety, or the sound of the alert affects your physical or mental health in any way, we recommend turning off any devices with a SIM connection between 6-7pm on Sunday 14 June, or putting them into flight mode.

👉📱 You can mute the sound of the alert by pressing the volume button on the side of your phone – this mutes the sound of the EMA while leaving the message on screen for you to read in full.
