This is part of our annual activity to raise funds for our veterans' support programs and the ongoing costs of running our sub-branch. Apart from special grants we receive for specific tied activities (see here), our club runs largely on donations from our generous sponsors and the Barossa public.
Numerous people simply drop off a donation and we have at least one collector who spends a large sum on new badges every year. Others buy one or two of our products sourced mainly from the Military Shop with whom we have an affiliation.
If you click on the Military Shop link here in the right column under Links, you'll not only find a rich harvest of militaria you can buy eg, jackets, medals, badges, caps, water bottles and much more, but you'll also ensure our club gets a small commission.
Do visit us on either of the two days and get yourself some of the newer memorabilia. We look forward to seeing you.
PS: The umbrellas were popular last year as were the purple badges acknowledging the service that animals have provided during all wars.
Thanks to the generosity of the Barossa Community, our Remembrance Day Appeal was a great success. Thank you to all those who supported us, we greatly appreciate your support.
