ANZAC Day is nearly here, and Port Stephens is set set and ready to host another year of moving Dawn Services and parades to commemorate this very special day. Schools have already acknowledged Anzac Day early in heartfelt and respectful services across Port Stephens, as Anzac Day this year falls during the school holidays. Warrant Officer Chris Whittington attended one such service in Medowie this year, and told News Of The Area, “The Catafalque Party and I are honoured to attend these services.” “They are always so thoughtfully

organised and well received.” The Medowie sub-Branch of the RSL will be holding a Dawn Service and march on 25 April. The march will commence at the Bull and Bush hotel car park at 5.45am, and finish at the Lions Memorial Park. The service will be held at Lions Memorial Park, starting at 6am, and concluding around 7am. Lions Park is at the corner of Medowie and Ferodale Roads, just opposite the Medowie Woolworths car park.
