Highlights of the day included home fire safety displays, demonstrations by the brigade’s running team and a hazardous materials (HAZMAT) response exercise.
The Hallam Brigade Auxiliary provided a sausage sizzle throughout the day and police and Emergency Services Minister Tim Holding paid his first visit to the station.
The Junior Fire Brigade also took part in a hose drill display and Captain Koala, the CFA mascot, also made an appearance.
