Getting wet and being cold was a small sacrifice at every Anzac Day service and memorial opening in Moorabool on Saturday and Sunday. Crowds flocked to the services which saw generations of families attend together. A dawn service started off the day in Bacchus Marsh, followed by a memorial unveiling in Bungaree, a service at Balliang, a march in Ballan, with a service at Yendon and Blackwood. The local football derby at Bacchus Marsh against Darley had a pre Anzac service in the pouring rain. A memorial unveiling at Navigators and the march in Bacchus Marsh took place the previous week.

Pictured – 92 year old Ron Trigg helped to unveil a memorial at Bungaree with a large crowd of close to 300 people sharing the experience.
