Fire Plan Workshops held with Koonwarra residents
17/Jan/2008
During December, The Koonwarra Fire Brigade hosted 2 Fire Plan Workshops to which residents learnt what to consider in preparing their own personal Fire Plans
Helen Guy, from the Koonwarra Community Fire Plan Committee said "These meetings were invaluable as residents gained from the expertise of CFA Wildfire Safety Presenters and our experienced local Fire Brigade members.
"It was particularly beneficial to sit with these people and discuss our own properties and circumstances and begin to write down things specific to us. "
Koonwarra continue to use their community website at www.koonwarra.vic.au to rally defences against the threat of bushfires by providing access on information and community "ownership" of the fire plans.
