SUMMARY:Anzac Day 2025 - The Dawn Service and Veteran's march
DESCRIPTION:Gather at dawn to honour the service and sacrifice of generations of Australians—and all those affected by war. \nThe service begins at first light\, marking the time of the Gallipoli landing in 1915—the first major military action by Australian and New Zealand forces (ANZACs) during the First World War. \nExperience a moving ceremony featuring recitations\, hymns\, wreath-laying\, and an address by the Governor of Victoria. Large screens around the Shrine ensure everyone can follow the proceedings. \nThe Dawn Service concludes at 6:30am. Afterward\, visitors are invited to place a poppy at the Stone of Remembrance inside the monument. \nAll are welcome. No tickets or bookings required. \nThe Veterans’ March\nJoin us in honouring those who have served—and continue to serve—in the defence of Australia and its interests. \nThe march begins on Swanston Street (near Federation Square) and proceeds along St Kilda Road to the Shrine of Remembrance. Vehicles carrying aged and mobility-impaired veterans depart at 8:30am\, followed by marching participants at 9am. The march is typically completed by midday. \nVeterans and their families are warmly invited to participate. Click below to learn more and register. \nLearn more \nKey timings\n\n5.30am: Dawn Service commences\n6.30am: Shrine of Remembrance opens\n9am: Veterans’ March commences\n\nVisit RSL Victoria’s website for more information. \n\n\n \n\n\nAttending Anzac Day with your family\nAnzac Day is a meaningful opportunity for families to come together and pay tribute to those who have served and are currently serving. \nDawn Service: This solemn and reflective ceremony begins before sunrise.

SUMMARY:2025 ANZAC Day Lunch - So Much Blood\, So Much Bravery – Was it worth it?
DESCRIPTION:We rightly spend much personal and national emotion on remembering the Great War and indeed all wars. \nWe focus on the carnage\, the loss of sons and brothers and on the exploits of our troops. \nBut what did it all mean? \nDid we achieve what we anticipated when we got into the war? \nAt the end of World War 1 the world changed dramatically\, empires were obliterated\, new nations were born and new national boundaries were drawn; the demographic balance of the nations involved was drastically altered by the war’s casualties; the economies of nations were impoverished. \nThe arrangements for peace negotiated at the Paris Peace Conference were driven by a hard desire for revenge on the one hand but also a strong desire to ensure this war could not be repeated. The treaty signed at Versailles sowed some of the seeds which led inexorably\, though not inevitably\, to World War 2. \nThis talk will discuss some of the outcomes and consequences of the Great War and the effects it had on following decades\, even up to this day. \nSpeaker: Lieutenant Colonel (Retd) Michael Buckridge RFD\, President of Military History and Heritage Victoria\, President of the Pipeclay Club. \nDress: Uniform or Men – Lounge suit / Jacket and Tie\, and Ladies – Day Dress and medals. \nCost: $65 per person\, includes 2 course luncheon. \nBeverages: Beverages are available at the cash bar. \nBookings: Bookings are necessary and guests are very welcome. You do not have to be an RACV Club Member to book. \nRSVP: When bookings use the link below: \nCLICK HERE TO BOOK VIA RACV CLUB WEBSITE \nPlease advise any dietary requirements or special needs.
