On Thursday 25th April, Revesby Workers’ Club hosted a memorable ANZAC Day event, drawing nearly 300 community members, including the Padstow Rotary Club, Revesby Workers Little Athletics, St. Luke’s Primary School, and many others. The morning began with a march from the Bankstown YMCA to the Revesby Workers’ Club Cenotaph, led by the 9th Regiment of the Royal Australian Artillery, followed by the Governor Macquarie Memorial Pipe Band, with over 200 participants from diverse backgrounds joining the march.
At 10:45 am, the service commenced, with Vice President Christine Butters opening proceedings, followed by President Daryl Melham, and readings from Directors Christine Benham and Linda Downey, along with Ray Devnie from the RSL Sub-branch. Following the service, attendees returned to the Club for an ANZAC Day morning tea function.
A special thanks to our management and staff who worked tirelessly in orchestrating the service and thanks to all of the club members and community who attended to show respect and honour our veterans and their families in the local district.
‘They shall grow not old,
As we that are left 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’
