At last Wednesday afternoon’s council meeting, councillors discussed delegate positions for this year’s Anzac Day services across Narrabri Shire.
As in previous years, each community service will have councillor representation.
Mayor Tiemens acknowledged the significance of attending memorials, volunteering for the Wee Waa dawn service.
Cr Tiemens told the meeting locals had told him “he’s avoided it for too many years”. Cr Tiemens told the meeting he has promised the Wee Waa community he will attend this year’s early morning commemoration.
Councillors selected services with community connections, with Cr Brett Dickinson speaking of his familial ties to the Pilliga area and nominating himself to that memorial service, along with the Narrabri and Narrabri West dawn services.
Cr Jocellin Jansson will be present at the Baan Baa dawn service and the Maules Creek late-morning commemoration, while Cr Navin Erathnage will attend Boggabri and Bellata.
Cr Ryan Whillas highlighted he will be in attendance at the Wee Waa march but would begin with the Gwabegar dawn service.
Details of the various services across the Narrabri Shire will be published in The Courier prior to Anzac Day.
