Arcadia Brigade held our COVID Safe AGM in August and we’ve had some changes amongst the ranks.
Arcadia has had a changing of the stripes. Our captain since 2014 has stepped down, but not too far, thank you Dave for your years of leadership, it has been greatly valued within the brigade and the community, and congratulations on becoming our new Senior Deputy Captain. Arcadia's newest Captain who has been in the service for 26 years has held the position once before, congratulations Mike. The brigade is looking forward to working with and learning from you.
The 2020 AGM has also seen Grant Paisley step into his new role as a Deputy Captain, well done Grant. It is always great to congratulate all the members that have continued or taken up new positions and we look forward to the year ahead!
If you would like to find out more about being part of the brigade, we would love to hear from you, please contact: enquiries@arcadiarfs.org.au
