ANZAC Day plans

A COUPLE of minor changes have been made to the traditional Hamilton ANZAC Day program including a shortened march, and groups of three will be called to lay wreaths during the 11am service instead of individuals. Hamilton RSL vice president and ANZAC Day Committee chair, Graeme Mustow, and secretary, Belinda Lane (both ex-Navy), are looking forward to the day that honours Australian and New Zealand war service men and women who served in all conflicts.

A SLIGHTLY shortened version of Hamilton’s ANZAC Day march will step off this year from a new location, the pedestrian crossing on Gray Street, just near the NAB.

Marchers will be required to fall in at the new location at the traditional time of 9.45am preceding the 10am march to the Hamilton Memorial at Melville Oval (on the corner of Lonsdale and Glenelg Highway) for the commemorative service at 11am.
