Calling for EOIs for Conference Working Party

Dear All,
The Community Engagement Team in HQ has started planning the 2012 Australasian Community Engagement & Fire Awareness Conference. The theme is ‘Fire Up Engagement’ and the event will be held from Fri 1 June – Saturday 2 June 2012. The venue will once again be the Novotel in Wollongong.

We are calling for expressions of interest (EOI) for members of our Conference Working Party. Working Party members will help us to shape the program and workshops, rank abstracts and poster submissions, and provide other feedback.

We are calling for 8-10 volunteers who would meet via evening teleconferences as required (teleconference dates and times to be confirmed). Working Party members are not required to travel to HQ for meetings. We hope to get a good spread over the state.
To submit an EOI volunteers are to send a short email (short paragraph or two) that outlines why they would like to be involved and what they can offer the Working Party/Conference. The email must include:

■Name:

■Region/District/Team/Zone/Brigade:

■Email address:

■Contact telephone:

EOIs are to be emailed to community.engagement@rfs.nsw.gov.au by Friday 18 November 2011.

Successful and unsuccessful applicants will be acknowledged by email. We will forward both meeting dates and teleconference details by email also.
If you have any ideas or feedback about last year’s conference also feel free to pop us an email.

Kind regards,



Nicole
