Family firefighting connections continue

Sam Rankin, Ben Munster with 1st Officer Mark Ayres

THE recent Beechmont Rural Fire Brigade AGM was well attended. At the meeting two new officers were elected. Ben Munster, 4th Officer and Sam Rankin, 5th Officer, continue over 55 years of unbroken family involvement in the brigade.

Ben’s grandfather, Stan, and Sam’s grandfather, Cliff were founding members of the brigade when it formed in 1969. Ben and Sam’s parents are also still very active members of the brigade. 

All other officers and management committee members are continuing in their roles and the brigade thanks them very much for their commitment and dedication.
