The Ash Wednesday Memorial Service will be held at the Mt Lofty Summit, on Monday 16th February, from 4 .00 p.m. The devastating Ash Wednesday fires swept thorugh South Australia in 1983, including the Mount Lofty Summit, causing millions of dollars in damage, and the loss of lives - including CFS volunteer firefighters. CFS members, their families, and the public are invited to attend the service. CFS members who wish to take part in the parade, are asked to wear turnout unforms, including helmets and decorations.
