"It was great everyone really enjoyed themselves, it was a fantastic day," Kiah RFS member, Trent Bennett said.

The event was organised by Clean Energy For Eternity (CEFE) and hosted by the Kiah rural fire brigade, from 11am to 4pm at the Kiah RFS shed, June 26.

"We're delighted to do this for Kiah, it was one of the worst hit areas in the Bega Shire."

This is not the first time CEFE have run fundraising events for the RFS, having already helped 15 RGS sheds so far.

"We want to help the people who have been devastated by the fires, I'm actually a member of the Tathra fire brigade and I was here during the Tathra fires in 2018, so I understand its an extremely traumatic time for them."

Five acts performed on the day, donating their time and talent to entertain people at the fundraising event.

The acts included, Surg, The Hops, Heath Marshall, Triply (that came down from Canberra) and a performance by the Wyndham School of Dance.

"With four bands and the Wyndham School of Dancing we were able to bring some great music, some fun and smiles to Kiah for the afternoon."

Pambula Rotary also provided a stage truck and sound pod for the performances on the day, which CEFE was very grateful for.

Throughout the afternoon over 150 people came and went.

Trent Bennett who hails from Kiah has recently joint the Kiah RFS crew and thinks the event really lifted the spirits of the 150 people who came and went over the afternoon.

"It gave a morale boost to everyone, we'd do it again for sure, it was a success, enough money was raised to get the battery," Mr Bennett said.

"We have already installed solar panels on the roof and between donations at the gate and a contribution from the RFS itself, CEFE can afford to buy a battery to go with the solar panels, so that will be installed within the next two or three weeks," Ms Kelly said.

Ms Kelly said the battery ought to give the brigade around four and a half to five hours of back up power during a black out.

"We were delighted to be there, we thank the Kiah RFS that provided food for us, the Pambula Rotary for the stage truck and the local residents who came out and sat to listen to the music," she said.
