How to get your Military Memorabilia

---- We open most Fridays from 5 pm. Everyone is welcome ---- Don't miss this opportunity to stock up on your memorabilia!

Two happy customers at our
Foodland sales point
Our member volunteers will run a kiosk outside Foodland Tanunda on 17 and 18 April 24 just in time for you to stock up for ANZAC Day and buy your groceries - two birds with one stone. 

We have a wide range of badges, pens, bags, mugs, and other memorabilia too much to mention here, so we invite you to drop in and have a look. You're sure to find something you can't live without.

Do you have enough memorabilia? No problem, you can make a donation or pick up a free poppy. Everyone gets a free poppy.

If you don't intend to get to Foodland Tanunda on either of those days but would like to support our RSL sub-branch, you can make a donation HERE

We buy our memorabilia from the Military Shop which has a much larger inventory of merchandise than we have. The profit we make and donations we receive from many generous businesses and individuals goes towards planning and running ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day for our community, maintaining our Hut in the Tanunda Recreational Park, and to helping our fellow veterans and families.

We think it's a worthwhile cause and hope you do too.


PS: Visitors to our Hut are always welcome and membership is available but not essential.

Another Successful Sausage Sizzle!

We held another successful fundraising sausage sizzle at Mitre 10, Nuriootpa last Saturday.

As we do a couple of times annually, our members set up and staffed the sausage sizzle with support from Foodland that supplies us with a quantity of sausages and Mitre 10 that provides the barbecue, tables, accessories, and the location outside their entry and exit doors.

It's an excellent spot to attract attention from the many customers who visit Mitre 10 on a Saturday.

After we've been in situ for an hour or so, the hunger-inflicting smell of cooked sausages drifts through the air attracting shoppers and even staff from nearby businesses. One such lady told us she could smell the food and couldn't wait for her mid-morning break to leave her office and buy one of our sausages. They're that good!

Our rolls with bacon, egg and onions are popular in the earlier hours of the day when people stop to have a snack for breakfast. Later, our sausages and onion on a piece of bread and a can of soft drink are more popular.

Some people who pass by simply make a donation. We appreciate very much those who support the RSL and enjoy the opportunity to get out and meet the locals, many of whom we already know.
