This year the Portland Rural Fire Brigade will again hold a local “Get Ready Weekend” for Portland and the surrounding community on Sunday 12 September 2021 between 10 am and 1 pm via Facebook.
The “Get Ready Weekend” provides an opportunity for you to engage with your local brigade, find out about the bush fire risk in your area (with a focus on rural holdings) and plan and prepare for the coming bush fire season.
Due to the COVID restrictions, the event is now available as an online activity – instead of being held at the Portland Rural Fire Station.
You can access the online event via Facebook www.facebook.com/portlandrfs/ at the same time to join members of the Portland RFS to learn about your local fire risk and prepare for bush fires.
