Ahh thanks for that Bajdas.. but for the eligibility for the world games.. It says..

"In order to be eligible to compete in the World Police & Fire Games, competitors must: be a law enforcement officer or fire fighter as their primary occupation" which most of the people in the CFS are not.. :-(

I had a look around the site but couldn't find a list of Sports that will be on.. I played in the ANZPES games last year and they had Judo.. Does anyone know if that will be on in these games?

Going slight offtopic for a moment here.. for the 2007 World Police and Fire Games.. I had a look at the eligibility for it (http://www.2007wpfg.com/theGames/eligibility.cfm) and it seems that CFS Volunteers won't be eligible. Am I the only one that think this sucks? I would of loved to compete against and met some of the other competitiors. Plus I would of loved to try and get an Ice Hockey team together.. Rats.

Yes.

Maybe we should respond CFS to everything SES go to because we can get there quicker in most cases (sarcasm).

Isn't speed important when it has a potential to harm what we're supposed to protect.. with Life being one of them? If we can remove a tree on a busy country road in 10 minutes, which would take the SES 60 minutes to get to, then we're reducing the chance of a bad car accident by a multiple of 6..

However.. to each their own.. Not everyone will agree on everything..

There has been some genuine passionate replies to this thread and all have been interesting. Me personally, I think it should be SES or an emergency response from the local council that deal with these types of calls. And as for the debate over MFS/CFS responding, if the job's in your patch then your it.
I have just noticed an increase of these type of calls over the years, especially with a couple of brigades in my group. Some of which have also responded to horses or cows on the road (now theres a can of worms for ya). Soon we'll be responding to water on the road...lol.
I just hope it isn't the "we pay the emergency service levy so we can respond you to what we want" syndrome. Or maybe it's the local brigade receiving the call via ALERTS and can't say no factor.

ps Assisting SES during multiple calls like storm damage i don't have a problem with. Good to get together every now and then.

What's your thoughts on the fact that it would take quite alot longer to remove a tree which has the potential to cause vehicle accidents? Do you still think it should be the SES/councils job?

I agree totally about the "we pay the emergency service levy so we can respond you to what we want" syndrome.. I have been at callout's where we've had people have trees fall across their driveway or fence though, which doesn't cause any immediate danger.. and they have a go at us for telling them to call a tree logger or something.. Some people think that because they pay their levy then we have to do that type of stuff.

LOL at the Smokey comment hehe

I totally agree with you Mike. I've been in for a year and a bit now and I went down to the fires down on Kangaroo Island. I learnt SO much on that one weekend and it was a great learning experience for me. I'm really glad I went because of how much I learned.

If a tree has fallen along a road and a vehicle travelling at 100kmph comes along, then it might not have a chance to avoid it. Then we'd be called out for a car accident. So I believe it's with good reason we're called out. I don't think we should have to chop up wood, take it away, or anything (unless some of our crew want free firewood).

I'm a member of Kangarilla, and we attend Tree Down's quite regularly. I dont think we should of been called because of the tree is in no way threatening life (like when it's fallen down across somebody's fence and they want us to fix it), but if it's along a road where it could potentially cause an accident then I don't have any problem with it. It's just preventing somebody that could be worse. That's why we do burn offs isn't it?

Oh soundboards.. what fun I've had with them. My favourite is the arnie one.. 'who is your daddy and what does he do?'

But back to the topic at hand.. I think that the idea anyone could do that is horrible.
