Ocean Grovers paid their respects to our fallen Diggers on Anzac Day.
The dawn service was well attended, and the mid-morning parade and ceremony at Ocean Grove Park attracted a large gathering of over a thousand people.
The 2017 Anzac Day service was opened by Ocean Grove Barwon Heads RSL Sub-Branch president Graham Fisher and was followed with a prayer by Rev Dr Jong Soo Park.
Wreaths were laid by local organisations and students from local schools, and guest speaker Brad Clarke OAM delivered a fascinating speech.
Caitlin McNaughton played The Last Post and the Recessional Choir played the New Zealand and Australian national anthems followed by the catafalque party dismount.
