Ashgrove RSL wish to sincerely thank The Ashgrove Citizens Anzac Day Commemorative Committee and the all who contributed to and attended this Anzac Day service. The Band of the 1st Field Regiment Royal Australian Artillery once again performed magnificently leading the march and the Colour Party made up of members of the St Johns Wood Scout Group. National Flags of Australia and New Zealand together with the service Ensigns followed the Band ahead of marchers. The services in Ashgrove have demonstrated that not only are contributions of those who served remembered, but that they are being ever increasingly recognised and honoured by a new and younger generation of Australians. Near 700 people attendance at the Dawn Service in Stewart Place exceeding all expectations as did the march and Commemoration Service with upward of 4,500 in attendance. The ever increasing number of young people was more than pleasing and the dignity and respect they demonstrated
was truly a tribute to “all who served”. Master of Ceremonies was Lieutenant Colonel Kevin Humphries (Retired) and the main commemoration service was addressed by Major General., Professor John Pearn AO RFD (Retired). A special mention should go to the Mater Dei School Choir for a very moving rendition of “I Am Australia”. We would like also to welcome those new members of the Sub-Branch who joined us at Memorial Park and at the Red Hill community Sports Club after the Services for refreshments. We trust that you and your families will enjoy being a part of the activities of the Sub Branch for many years to come.
