Eumundi Medical Lest we forget Centre re-opening 9 May
E
umundi’s period without a town doctor is nearly at an end with the announcement that the Eumundi Family Medical Centre will officially open to provide a general practitioner service on Monday 9 May. Appointments may be made from 3 May by phoning 5442 8882, the new phone number allocated to the Centre which will operate in the same premises as previously, adjacent to Eumundi Village Pharmacy. Local doctor Carlos Sanchez will provide GP services and the practice manager and the practice nurse to come on board are also very experienced local health professionals. Eumundi Combined Community Organisation Ltd chair Sam Scanlon said, “ECCO directors are very proud to restore such an essential service as a medical centre to our area and that it will be a community owned and directed model of medical care makes it unique and a best fit. “It has been a challenge to source all that is needed to set up the Centre, particularly the permissions and government requirements and there is still some paperwork being continued on page 4

embers of the Woombye Troop and the Noosa and District Pipe Band will be in Eumundi to add their respects to the fallen on ANZAC Day this year. They will support the community walk led by returned service men and women, ex and serving members of the forces followed by community members. More visitors to Eumundi than other years are expected as this year’s ANZAC Day’s 25 April commemoration coincides with Easter Monday. This year’s ANZAC Day commemoration is the seventh in Eumundi in recent times. In the early 1980s ANZAC Day services in Eumundi ceased following the amalgamation of the Eumundi
RSL Sub-branch with Yandina as membership declined. In 2005 a number of residents banded together and with support from local community groups and individuals restored a commemoration in Eumundi. Two years later the Eumundi ANZAC Day committee established a WWII memorial of seven trees and plaques at the Amphitheatre to the seven men from Eumundi who made the supreme sacrifice. The WWI memorial trees along Memorial Dr are perhaps the best known landmark of Eumundi. Services this year are 6am at Verrierdale Hall and 7.45am at Eumundi (assembly is in front of Dick Caplick Park).
