It is vital that we maintain our strong ties to the local community and RSL Club, we participate in RSL Marches and Commemoration Services to give all members a sense of history to share in the ANZAC tradition.
We also support many local and national charities throughout the year; such as Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal, Chris Riley’s Youth of the Streets and The Exodus Foundation. This year we are also supporting the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal. |
