If you would like to lay a wreath at this Saturdays Anzac Day Service please support our local florists and get your orders through as soon as possible.

I have called all of our local florists today and they are all happy to take orders for Anzac Day Wreaths. Please get your orders in for your family or organisation to allow them enough time to create the arrangements for you.

To ensure that the wreath laying is well arranged we ask that all floral tributes and wreaths be presented to the cenotaph by 0530 so that they can be recorded and collated into a formal order. Please have the cards clearly printed on the wreath for the person or persons who will be laying your tribute.

Any queries, please reach out to Ian Nicholls on 0419 524 454
Thank you

Williamstown Anzac Day Dawn Service

The Williamstown Commemorative Dawn Service will commence at 6:00am on Saturday 25th April at the Cenotaph (cnr Ferguson St / The Strand).

This year's event has been coordinated by local businessmen and volunteers owing to the lack of involvement by the RSL network.

We thank this small group of people who have moved quickly to ensure the Williamstown community may honour the fallen and those who served in our defence forces

In no particular order, the organising committee wish to thank Hobsons Bay City Council; Melissa Horne MP; Cr Lisa Bentley; Rev Elizabeth Murray; Fr Greg Trythall; Jason Cowie (Audio); Western Brass Band; Jim Millman (Bugle); Peter Bedwell (Piper); Jason Smith; Jodie Rollinson and those who remain as quiet achievers.

With Thanks,
The Organising Committee
3016 Anzac Day Dawn Service.

We will remember them
