Joeys visit fire station
The Broken Bay Joey Scouts attended the Umina Fire Station on Wednesday, February 22, to learn about fire safety and emergencies.
The group took a guided tour of the building, during which they got to sit in the trucks, use the water hoses, wear the uniforms, see what happens when a 000 call comes through and learn about fire awareness at home and in the community.
The firemen showed them the safety equipment used in emergencies and what type of call outs the fire brigade attend to.
The Joeys meet at Umina Scout Hall on Wednesdays from 5pm until 6pm.
