Australia 2010: Seventh Annual HU Travellers Meeting
Quote:
NOTE: Main days are Saturday / Sunday, but there will be lots of people on the Friday and Monday (arrivals Friday and Anzac Day stuff happening Monday). Danielle Murdoch, Glen Cochrane, and Guy Basile, (plus a lot of others) are the local hosts for this event - we're VERY grateful to them for stepping up and really making it happen with a lot of legwork and effort. So who's going? :clap::Beach: |
Count me in, assuming I am back in Oz by then :)
Cheers TravellingStrom |
I am hoping to be able to make this, as long as I can get time off work.

I'll be there + ANZAC Day Services
Hi all, I'll be there.
BTW, that weekend is ANZAC Day Weekend in Australia, when we take time to remember those who have given their all to protect Australia. There will be a number of services around the place. For those interested, here are the details for the services in Cooroy: Sunday 25 April 2010. ANZAC Day Dawn Service 5:00 AM Sharp Get there early as 1400 turned up in 2009 RSL Memorial Park Diamond Street Gunfire breakfast $2.00 Gold Coin donation to go to their welfare program 10:30 March and Parade Cooroy Butter Factory and Arts Centre 10 Maple Street Memorial Service after the March and Parade Cooroy Memorial Hall Seating for 300. Standing room only for everyone else Luncheon for sub-branch members Non-members are welcome to use the bar etc, but the luncheon is strictly for sub-branch members. I will post up details of some of the other services in the very near future. Regards, Shane |
Excuse my ignorance - but what is a sub-branch member?

And at a guess, if you don't know what it is either, you're probably not one of the privileged! ;) (We'll just have to go on the basis that if they won't have us, we'll just find somewhere better! ) |
A sub branch member is a member of the RSL, but not from this particular branch, so if you are a member anywhere of the RSL, you get in.

It was on our list of things to investigate. I will be up for the Dawn Service ride. I have organised our own 6 metre flag pole and Aussie flag for the HU Meeting site More info is coming in by the day, time is moving fast! Glen |
ANZAC Day Service - Noosa Tewantin Services Club
Hello Everyone.
The Noosa Tewantin Services Club will be holding services and have sent me an email with their details. We will need to watch this space for full information: __________________________________________________ ___ Dear Shane Thank you for your recent enquiry with regards to attending the ANZAC day service. Your guests and yourself are more than welcome to attend the service and ceremony and details of the times for this event will be advertised in the local Noosa News prior to the 25th. Please note, that the function which we hold at the club after the ceremony is a closed event for club members and their partners. Kind regards Pauline Ryeland Secretary __________________________________________________ ___ |
ANZAC Day Service - Eumundi
Hello again,
The Eumundi township will also be holding a morning ANZAC Day Service, from 7:30 Am to 9:00 Am. I have often found that the small town services the most moving and for international travellers, this is well worth the effort. Here is the email sent to me from the RSL Sub Branch President at Eumundi: __________________________________________________ ____ As Eumundi is a community centred town, the ANZAC Day service consists of a returned servicemen led 'community walk' along Memorial Avenue with wreath laying on the WWI and WWII memorial trees in the town., with the appropriate pipe band, speeches etc, school choir, culminating in the Last Post and Rouse followed by the minutes silence at the town's amphitheatre. Eumundi is only one of two towns in QLD with a memorial avenue and is unique in this aspect. We do not hold a dawn service but these are held in nearby, Tewantin/Noosa, Coolum or Cooroy. If you want to go to a dawn service, the one at Coolum can be recommended. A starting time for this is not known at this time but is usually 1 to 1 1/2 hours before dawn. On this years ANZAC Day, the Sunday Markets in Eumundi will be operating. After the service, which will be from 7:30 am to about 9:00 am, you may wish to visit the markets. Regards, Glenn Brown __________________________________________________ ____ |
