Village to pay tribute to emergency services

Corio Village will connect the public with our local emergency services this weekend.

Among the organisations taking part are Corio Police, Fire Rescue Victoria, SES, Ambulance Victoria, Barwon Water, Victorian Fisheries, Australian Coast

Guard.

The event, hosted by Corio Village and compered by Craig Meddings, will have displays and a live demonstration from emergency services at noon, free kids’ entertainment including DIY first aid kits, colouring competitions, free face painting and badge making. On the day there will be free showbags, prizes from Corio Village retailers including $4000 worth of Platypus Shoes vouchers, free coffee from Ferguson Plarre, 30% off Boost Juices, 2 for 1 bowling at General Public and more.

Centre manager Curtis Gillett said Corio Village is proud to bring Emergency Services Day to the centre for a second time.

“This year we’re putting on a significantly larger event, with more services and bigger giveaways,” he said.

“The event is perfect for our community to engage with and gain deeper insights into the dedicated emergency services and their personnel who tirelessly serve our local area.

“We encourage our community to make the most of this event, engaging with our local emergency services and seeing what else the improved Corio Village has to offer.”’

The event is being held at the Corio Village car park on Sunday September 16 from 10am to 1pm. More information at coriovillage.com.au/news/emergency-services-day
