Title: CFA Fiskville Shutdown After Toxic Water Discovered
Post by: misterteddy on June 25, 2012, 09:56:57 AM
story from the Herald Sun this morning of all training events at Fiskville cancelled until further notice due to as yet unamed bacteria contaminating the water. Sadly they are pay per view so the rest of it will come out eventually I guess (unless anyone here subscribes)

Wouldnt be a chance of it happening at Brukunga, or Angle Park would there?....of course it's tested isnt it...  :-o

and poor old Fiskeville and the CFA cop it again. This practice was widespread in the 70s and 80s in many services, not just the CFA.
