The recent tragedies of the “Black Saturday” fires have saddened all families and friends of FHC and our thoughts and sympathies go out to all the families who have lost their homes and in particular lost loved ones. We recently learnt of Eileen Scott, a FHC ladies member who played over 100 games during 1996 – 2001 and was ladies club champion in 1994 and 1995, losing her house in the Church Hill fires.
Luckily she narrowly escaped with her 7 month old daughter and no one was injured. This is the only FHC past member we have heard being directly effected by the fires.
The herald sun reported 2 stories about her escape:
