OUR LIFE – HARBORD DIGGERS

Harbord Diggers has ridden, driven and heralded change proudly. But the one thing that has remained constant throughout the club’s story are the pillars of community and mateship on which we were founded.

With a friendship forged on the poppy fields of France, a group of Aussie Diggers returned home to the Northern Beaches longing for a place to meet and share their stories over a cold beer, and so on 5 June 1930, Harbord Diggers was born.

Harbord Diggers has been a monumental part of the Northern Beaches and Club industry ever since.

We thank you for your patience whilst we have built the new Harbord Diggers. We trust that you love the new approach to an Australian tradition.

30s

During the Great Depression, in the spirit of mateship, club profits were returned to Members and their families in distress. The club became more than just a place to meet.

50s

Originally in an old hut overlooking Freshwater Beach, the club finally settled on its headland location in the early 1950s.

60s 80s

During the 60s and 70s, stars from around the world played the auditorium to massive crowds.

00s

Things weren’t as prosperous at the Diggers, so Mounties Group amalgamated with the club in 2006 and then came a strong vision to revamp the club.

By the late 80s, the club experienced membership growth and solidified itself as one of the most successful in Australia.

10

By 2010, the now weathered Harbord Diggers building was reaching the end of its life and with that came a campaign to plan a new dawn for the Diggers.

13

Harbord Diggers lodges a Development Application (DA) for a new precinct and in August 2013, the Joint Regional Planning Panel approves the Stage 1 DA. Diggers.

16

Following final DA approvals and design competitions, work starts on the new Harbord Diggers and a temporary club continues to serve Members and guests.

18

Stage 1 of the new Harbord Diggers is complete and the club opens its doors to a new intergenerational precinct. The Diggers legacy lives on.

THE HARBORD HEART

TH E D IFF ER ENCE

IT WILL MAKE 10

OUR LIFE – HARBORD DIGGERS

Born from mateship and built to improve the lives of local people, we exist to carry on a legacy.

It is our duty to contribute to the community.

Each time we engage with it, we must leave it richer than before.

SUCCESS FOR HARBORD DIGGERS MEANS S U C C E S S F O R T H E E N T I R E C O M M U N I T Y: Profit from every beer poured, every meal served and every game played at the new Harbord Diggers will be invested back into our community, whether through a grant, donation or for new facilities and events for our locals to enjoy.

The new Diggers will provide more than 250 local jobs, ensuring we can continue giving back to our local community as one of the largest employers in the area.

Through our whole-of-life approach, we aim to encourage social engagement and inclusion amongst all members of our community, reducing the risk of social isolation.

In the spirit of our original legacy, Mounties Group currently contributes more than $1 million annually to support local community groups and the Diggers is eager to significantly increase this contribution.

With a state-of-the-art fitness and aquatic precinct and a wide range of health and wellbeing services being developed, the new Harbord Diggers is prioritising health and wellbeing.

Our over 55s living, Watermark Freshwater, is changing the face of retirement living in Australia, with ageing in place facilities available to help reduce aged care admissions.
