Volunteer Call Out - Bushfire Relief

About this event

MJOC Bushfire Recovery Working Bee – Tallarook
Address: Cnr East Falls Road and Flynns Road Tallarook

Camping from Friday 6 March 2026 (from 5:00pm) through to Monday 9 March 2026 (depart by 12:00pm).

Members are welcome to attend for the entire weekend or join us for just a day.

We will be based at Dennis Webb’s property. For those that don't know Dennis - he is a long time MJOC Member and does a lot of Volunteering work for the club and in his community and is a member of the Yea CFA.  Dennis is always willing to give a hand to others, this is our chance to give Dennis a hand!

There are toilet and shower facilities on site, and camping is available. Please note that the ground has been blackened following the recent bushfire.

Over the weekend, we will be driving and clearing fallen trees from tracks in the Tallarook area, assisting with bushfire recovery efforts. This is practical, hands-on work helping restore safe access after the recent fires.

Please ensure you bring:

* Appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection, sturdy boots, long sleeves)
* Recovery gear
* Camping equipment and supplies
* UHF radio
* Chainsaw and any other equipment to assist with this sort of work

Let’s get a strong crew together and support the recovery effort.

We will be able to drive unaffected tracks in the afternoon - this is Private Property and the tracks are not available to the general public.


Your registration here is to enable you to participate in the afternoon drive or the night drive that is only available for those doing volunteer work. You must register for Volunteer Activities to qualify to attend the 4WD trips.
