Commemorating the cessation of hostilities.
At the 11th hour, on the 11th day, of the 11th month, 1918, guns fell silent.
LEST WE FORGETLEST WE FORGET
And remembering all servicemen and women and their families who sacrificed all for our country then and since.
Drum Major, Bill Dower and drummer wife Kath
Our drummers, with "imported" members Catherine and Paul, (thanks!)
Father Conrad Patterson reminded us to pray for our wonderful country, he prayed for our leaders, our people and peace in Australia. The church choir sang, a minutes silence was observed, wreaths placed and the flag lowered.
"They shall not grow old, as we that are left to grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
We will remember them."
(L. Binyon - For the Fallen)
