After the Ash Wednesday fires of 1983, Glenhaven collected $1,200 for the families of five Panton Hill brigade members who had died. The money came from customers at a local nursery where the brigade stationed its vehicles. Its letter explained a connection with another small brigade in a community much like their own.
In May 1990 the archive records 600 person-hours of work at the Nyngan floods and names seven participating members. Another ninety hours of flood relief at Wisemans Ferry appears that August.
January 1994 brought about four hectic days of fire duty, with the account describing work around Wisemans Ferry and Canoelands and an exhausted crew returning to help at North Rocks. Service was regional, with local obligations still close at hand.
After the April 1999 Sydney hailstorm, Glenhaven members contributed another recorded 600 hours repairing damaged homes. The history’s final entries include a new tanker in June 2001 and Sydney storm damage in November. This collection closes with the original history’s endpoint.
