Clue....in 1994 they were still Region 3 :wink:

I reckon the KI Group has always been in Region 1...there were at least two Groups on KI previously, which eventually merged to form the current KI Group within the last 8 years or so....   :|

Got some idea that one may have been the Dudley Group...?

No, KI only joined region 1 when they did the big shake up of regions and went from 9 to 6 regions... Don't know the year though...

Kangaroo Island may have changed regions, but the KI Group I don't reckon existed then.....   :|

The first organised fire fighting unit in this state was Wirrabara. According to the plaque in the township at the entrance to the forest.

You would probably build a fire king to survive a burnover to save lives. Quite a few deaths have occurred in forest fires in SA over the years.
