ANZAC Day Dawn Service

A dawn ceremony for ANZAC Day will be held at the Edmonton City Centre Cenotaph at 8AM on Sunday the 25th of April.  Following the ceremony there will be a Gunfire Breakfast open to the public.  At this time, the Gunfire Breakfast looks to be hosted by the Kingsway Legion and the DownUnder Club is currently working on the details.   Please check back often for updates.

"They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
we will remember them."
— From the Anzac Day Service

Buy a Wreath.  Support the Royal Canadian Legion

For ANZAC Day, we encourage you to buy a Wreath from The Greater Edmonton Poppy Fund for the Dawn Service.  The purpose of the Greater Edmonton Poppy Fund, which is a service branch of the Royal Canadian Legion, is to assist our Veterans and their dependants.

ANZAC Day BBQ

We're seeking expressions of interest in attending a family BBQ.  As we did last year, a family barbeque is also being considered for later in the day at Keehan and Dawn's place.  Located in Edmonton's West End around Callingwood Road and the Anthony Henday, they have a large kid-friendly yard and deck.  It would be a BYO meat and drinks, while the Club would provide the BBQ, pop and condiments, etc.   Of course, since Edmonton's weather can be unpredictable so we'd have to keep a backup plan open too.  If you think you'd like to come along, please let us know here as soon as possible so we can gauge the interest in having a BBQ.
