We commemorated ANZAC Day 2026 with a Dawn Service, Gunfire Breakfast, Beechworth Correctional Facility Service, Beechworth Health Service, Main Service followed by Refreshments and Traditional Activities in ANZAC Hall/RSL Rooms.
We had great attendances at all services and thank the members of our community for their continued support and involvement.
In our main service we honoured Martha (Lucas) Witherow.
Jade Lawrence and Kalum Porteous delivered a speech on Marta's service as a Nurse in WW1.
Martha's granddaughter Rosie Bennett then read a poem she wrote about Martha.
Geoff Jackson then recited a poem called The Red Cross Nurse.
32 Wreaths were laid by community groups.
Sarah Lockwood sang the anthems beautifully as usual.
These were the last Wreaths to be made by Gina Kromar of Beechworth Floral Designs. We have been blessed to have had Gina making our Wreaths for the last 10 years. The RSL wishes Gina all the best in her retirement.

Today sees the end of my tenure as Appeals Officer for our brilliant sub-branch here at Beechworth. We raise a lot of money for our local veterans by conducting the Poppy and ANZAC appeals and the connection with our volunteers (including several of our young kids) warms the heart and fills the soul. Despite a lot of advertising, no one has put up their hand to take over.
My predecessor Alison Williams put many years into the role and I have done the last few.
If you have some time to spare twice a year, care about your local veterans and would love the support of a mentor guiding you through, please consider the role of Appeals Officer.
If you put up your hand you will receive free membership at Beechworth, a training manual, mentoring and a heart full of pride for our veterans. Please send a message.
