Red Cliffs Urban Fire Brigade centenary
Jade BENHAM (Mildura) (15:08): The Red Cliffs fire brigade also celebrated 100 years of service, and I was fortunate enough to attend the celebratory dinner on Saturday night, where a unit citation was awarded in recognition for the service shown by Joel Bailey, Walter Graham, Thomas Leach, Matthew Maher, Lachlan Shaw and Dale Taylor, along with acting commander Shane Bailey, who was also awarded a citation for his service and response to the June accident on the Calder Highway. Well done, Bec Nixon and David Thomas, for organising a wonderful event, and thank you to our volunteer firefighters, who are the backbone of regional communities.
