About Event

Everyone is invited to join the Lockwood CFA and their indomitable mascot, Captain Koala, to celebrate their 75th milestone at a Community Fair from 10.00am to 3.00pm on Sunday 26 October at the CFA and Lockwood South Community Hall precinct – corner of Crusoe Road and Calder Alternative Hwy.

 

There will be lots of fun for kids at the Fair, including:

  • Face Painting (who doesn’t want to take home a tiger, butterfly or superhero?)
  • Kelly Sports (a great way for your kids to burn off some energy through games)
  • Firetruck Water Hose Target Practice (youngsters can channel their inner firefighter and test their aim)
  • Primary School Displays (letting your children show off their school)
  • Badge Making & Colouring Sheets (letting your kids show off their artistry!)
  • Showbags (goodies to take home…)

 

No one will go hungry as you can enjoy the:

  • Sausage Sizzle
  • Coffee & Snacks Van
  • Sourdough Bread & Condiment Sales
  • Biscuit & Cake Market Stall 

 

There will also be plenty of fun and interesting things to explore for everyone else, including:

  • Raffle – with five exciting prizes totalling nearly $2000 worth of goodies
  • Silent Auction – providing a fun way to support the CFA
  • Community Market – a wide range of market stalls to search for treasures
  • Vintage Fire Trucks – on display for young and old who love classic machines
  • Oscar One Mine Rescue Demonstration – see real life heroes in action!
  • CFA and SES Emergency Response Vehicles – climb aboard and learn what makes these vehicles so special
  • Fire Safety Demonstrations – learn together about fire safety in a fun, interactive way

 

At around 2.00pm you will be able to witness a historic unveiling, a scintillating speech, a nail-biting raffle draw – and if you are lucky, a gig by Captain Koala!

 

Dean Heather, Captain of the Lockwood CFA, commented, “this will be a great opportunity for the community to come together to celebrate and support the Brigade’s achievement.“

 

Captain Koala, the CFA mascot who is a marsupial of few words, commented, “&&&&&.”

 

So, bring your friends, bring the family, and don’t forget your sense of adventure! The Lockwood CFA members can’t wait to celebrate 75 years of community with you all. See you at CFA Lockwood on October 26th!
