Open Day?
« on: January 08, 2006, 06:38:21 PM »
I remember from many years ago going to the Adelaide MFS station for an open night, where they put on display's etc.  Do they still do that at all?  It was rather good.

I think that they only do that when they are recuiting but not too sure. They had one not too long ago when they did the last recuitment

BBQ, video's, demonstrations, show people over the truck.  If you are an RCR brigade maybe get a beat up car and cut bits off it.  What brigade?

Any news on if there is another open day coming up, thought they were putting one on to compensate for the Womens and CHildrens busnr unit open day when they had to cancel due to the amount of call outs...  Anyone know?
