A local firey has offered to chop the mop to raise money for this year’s Good Friday Appeal.
Eynesbury CFA Communications officer Jason McEgan said his long brown mullet isn’t a very popular haircut around the fire station.
“My hair is something a few people don’t like around the brigade,” he said.
“We came up with the idea that I shave it and raise some money for the Good Friday appeal, it’s something very small that I can do to help such a big cause,” he said.
The highest donor, as well as contributing to a good cause, will also be awarded the honour of cutting Mr McEgan’s hair themself at the Eynesbury CFA open day on Sunday, April 2.
While raising money for the Good Friday Appeal, Eynesbury CFA are also opening their doors to residents for a day of fun activities.
The Eynesbury CFA open day kicks off at 11am for the public to get to see the inner-workings of the station, trucks, and everything the local firies do.
There’ll be a range of kids entertainment, games, and even a chance for them to squirt the hose.
Eynesbury CFA will also be joined by a range of other community service groups on the day, including Victoria Police, VicSES and the local Rotary club for a sausage-sizzle barbeque.
Eynesbury Brigade Community Safety Coordinator Adrian Kendall said he’s looking forward to the day.
“We’re excited to host the public and show them a bit behind the scenes of what we do, and see if we can get a few more people involved, joining either operationally or non operationally,” he said.
Donations for Mr McEgan’s haircut can be made online.
