On Sunday volunteers from the Southern Region Tasmanian SES gathered at our Mornington facility to celebrate 50 years of the Tasmania SES .
The gathering was a great opportunity to catch up with some old faces and swap stories. It was also a chance to reflect on where the service has come from and where it is heading into the future. With 50 years now reached it is a great opportunity to look back at where our local TAS SES - Glamorgan Springbay Unit has come from , to reflect on the volunteers of the past, the present and those yet to don the orange overalls and become SES VOLUNTEERS of the future. To say a lot has changed over the years is an understatement technology , safety , clothing , procedures are just a few areas . One thing that never changes is the passion, commitment, dedication and sense of community that every volunteer brings to the service .
Sundays event acknowledged this commitment with volunteers across the southern region recognised for their dedication and service .
