The Bathurst Rotary Club, for a number of years, have provided a free community BBQ in conjunction with the Anniversary of D-Day (held on the Saturday closest to the Anniversary date of June 6th).
This year, the North Shore Regiment, who had their named changed a few years back, are now being honoured and will have their original name restored at the event at the KC Center on Saturday June 7th.
In previous years, the veterans were marched in the the Memorial Site at the North end of Coronation Park. Chairs were set up and many if just stood nearby. The event started with a Master of Ceremonies (often Graham Wiseman was involved on behalf of the City and t he Legion). There was a moment of silence at 11am and after the ceremony everyone was invited to the BBQ
In recent years held at BHS cafeteria but was in the tennis court at the onset.
Our Rotary Club will do this year’s BBQ, for those who attend and for anyone who comes out, until the food is all gone, at the entrance to the KC Irving Center.
