Open Day this weekend
IF you have ever considered joining any one of the emergency services units at Port Fairy, this weekend is the ideal time to find out more information.

A special Community Emergency Services Day will be held this Sunday, August 31, at the Port Fairy SES unit.
Members from the local SES unit will be joined by local police, fire brigade members, the Port Fairy Surf Life Saving Club, Ambulance Victoria and Marine Rescue for a fun day of information, entertainment and displays.
“The aim of the day is to let people know what each of our roles are within the community and to hopefully attract new members,” SES unit controller Hannah Morris said.
“It will be great to have so many emergency services represented at the one location, providing information to the community and giving some insight into the roles of each.
“There will be stalls set up in the car park area between the SES and fire station for people to have a look and chat with personnel; hopefully gaining a greater insight into what each of the services do may entice people to consider joining.”
It is anticipated that children’s activities will also run throughout the day – and visitors can enjoy a sausage in bread as they wander the grounds.
The day will run from 10am-1pm.
