Dear Friend
Honouring the heroes of the past is important to valuing and protecting our wonderful country of Australia for current and future generations.
I co-wrote a special song, “Lest We Forget”, a few years ago and then produced it to share with whoever feels as passionately as I do about our country.
In the lead-up to ANZAC Day on April 25, I thought I’d share it again.
My office has a limited number of CDs to GIVE AWAY along with Australian flags in honour of ANZAC Day or you can listen to the song on my YouTube Channel, Fiona Simpson MP or you can download it on Spotify by CLICKING HERE.
The song is special to me as the lyrics were written by me and my good friend and fellow Sunshine Coast singer, Tanya Maree McFadyen-Bandera, wrote the music.
Anzac Day is important to me as we remember our fallen heroes and all who have served to uphold the freedoms we all benefit from today.
There are many services across the Sunshine Coast on Anzac Day.
The services in the Maroochydore Electorate are:
- 4.28am – Maroochydore RSL League Dawn Service – Cotton Tree Cenotaph
- 4.55am – Mooloolaba – in front of Mooloolaba Surf Club
- 5.30am – Mudjimba Dawn Service – Power Memorial Park, Mudjimba
- 9.00am – Maroochydore RSL League main service – Cotton Tree Cenotaph – preceded by march at 8.30am
- 11.00am – Korean War Veterans Commemorative Service, Korean War Memorial at the top of the hill in Alex
- 11.00am – Mudjimba RSL Sub Branch, Power Memorial Park, preceded by march
I look forward to seeing many of you at our local services.
I’m privileged to be singing the National Anthem at both the 9.00am Maroochydore RSL and 11.00am Mudjimba services and I will be at the Mooloolaba Dawn Service.
