SEVILLE CFA led the street parade at the Yarra Valley Spring Festival on Saturday, 12 November, recognising 75 years of service to the Seville community.
The festival included a ceremony marking the 75th Jubilee, with presentations to volunteers, the opportunity for past and present members to catch up, and for the community to recognise the brigade’s contribution.
The parade made its way from the Seville CFA to the recreation reserve where local community groups, traders and sporting clubs, along with neighbouring CFA and SES units provided information and entertainment.
Community performances made way in the afternoon for live music leading into a spectacular fireworks finale.
