You or your club may be able to help in a fabulous project. Michael Keats and Keith Maxwell are researching Dawn Services at Splendour Rock on ANZAC Day. There are few details for many years as to whether a Dawn Service occurred at all. We are calling on clubs to fill in the gaps, if possible.
A book is well advanced that will contain a wealth of information about Splendour Rock but we would like to confirm details for the years below. You could help make this publication an even better book.
Splendour Rock was dedicated on ANZAC Day in 1948. Contributions from various club magazines and individual club members have resulted in some truly great recollections which will be included in the text. There are significant gaps in the record, such as an incomplete set of logbooks in the State Library of NSW, and anyone who can help fill these years would be most welcome to send us their stories or recollections or field notes. Years for which we seek stories are –
| 1949 | 1953 | 1957 | 1970 | 1977 | 1981 | 1987 | 2020 |
| 1950 | 1954 | 1963 | 1974 | 1978 | 1982 | 1990 | |
| 1951 | 1955 | 1964 | 1975 | 1979 | 1984 | 1991 | |
| 1952 | 1956 | 1968 | 1969 | 1980 | 1985 | 1992 |
