Thank you, Swan Hill and district

ON behalf of the president and board of the Swan Hill RSL sub-branch, I would like to thank all the generous people who donated to our Anzac Appeal.

The men from Tyntynder footy sheds, a big heartfelt thanks for your time and what a great effort you all put in.

To all the other volunteers, you all excelled in your time and effort. The Girl Guides that did the tin rattle on Anzac Day, you were all wonderful.

To Kylie, a big thank you for all your hard work the past four weeks.We had a very successful appeal, all monies go to our RSL welfare.

That in turn helps all ex-service personal and their families that have fallen on hard times. Again thank you for your generosity.

Maralyn Toppiner

Appeals officer

Swan Hill RSL sub-branch
