Thank you to everyone who attended this morning’s ANZAC Day Dawn Service at the Miranda War Memorial. As an important day in the Youth Club calendar, it was heartening to see the Youth Club well represented with numerous members and their parents in attendance. There was also an impressive community turn out with crowds spilling out of Central Road onto Parkside Avenue.

A special thanks goes to Club Treasurer Bill Lewis who organised the set up for the ceremony and our many volunteers who helped with the barbecue and equipment pack down.

No matter where you are today, we hope that you can take the time to reflect on the spirit of the ANZACs and express your gratitude for the dedication and courage of our service men and women.

Lest We Forget.

Large crowds attend the ANZAC Day Dawn Service at the Miranda War Memorial.

ANZAC Day is a very important date in the Youth Club calendar. It is a time for reflection, a chance to pay tribute to those who have served and to thank those who continue to serve today. This year’s ANZAC Day Dawn Service will be held on the 25th of April at the Miranda War Memorial. Youth Club members are strongly encouraged to attend.

All Youth Club members are asked to wear their club t-shirt and meet out the front of Diggers Miranda on The Kingsway at 5:15 am to march at 5:30 am. Refreshments will be available for purchase at the conclusion of the service.

Display Day is Miranda RSL Youth Club’s annual Athlete Showcase and Presentation Day featuring performances by recreational and competitive athletes from across every disciple that the Youth Club offers. This year, Display Day was held on Sunday the 3rd of December at the Youth Club Hall.

There was a great turnout of athletes, club members and spectators, with the event attended by a number of local politicians and executive members of the Miranda RSL Sub Branch. A special thank you goes out to our many volunteers who helped out with set up and pack up, organising the raffle and running the canteen. Without our volunteers, events such as Display Day could not happen.
