It will be one of your highlights of you life.

You can work at your pace and when you wish (we all can't work like laborers anymore).

You will learn much about the country we call home and the people who live in it,

You will spend good times with good people who are prepared to dig in and help others in need.

Info can be found here http://blazeaid.com.au/

You will find contact details and what sites are functioning and others in the pipe line.

The basics is you camp in a group at a site such as an oval or similar. You are supplied breakfast, Cereal, bacon and egg etc, the farmer usually supplies a lunch often roasts etc but sometimes sandwiches, depends on their situations.

Usually stop work at 4 and return to base for a few drinks and much fellowship and then you get an evening meal, usually supplied by a local group who get paid from the funds available for the fire or flood recovery.

There are all sorts of jobs you can do. Whilst fencing is hard work you can elect to just help carry some tools, do cleanup before the fences are erected, there are jobs around the base such as helping to clean the sheds, preparing lunches etc when required as well as answering phones and supervision as well as tool maintenance.

You may even enjoy learning how to actually erect a farm fence so it can come into use when seeking to stay on a farm for a new experience as you travel.

There is a new site being opened in MAFFRA on Monday

I only know this info as I have spent a lot of time with this group after the fires in 2009 at Kilmore and the floods at Pit****er and Charlton.
