ANZAC Day Commemoration

Jo from Redwood Valley

After ANZAC Parades were cancelled it was suggested that Bagpipers, individually,(from their home frontage), could recognise ANZAC Day by playing a tune at dawn. In addition playing Amazing Grace at 1100am,(a suggestion from Australia), is being promoted.
A tune at dawn could take place between 20 to and 10 to 6, the normal time we would begin an ANZAC parade. Finishing at 10 to 6 allows time for the start of the official RSA/radioNZ service. Awareness of, and notification to your neighbourhood will provide residents with the choice of opening or closing their windows, however it is ANZAC and on this day bagpipes at dawn are very common.

The RSA, NZ Heritage and Australian RSL are all very supportive. It is envisaged this would take place throughout the country so national TV, for greater exposure, will also be contacted.
Further promoting of this suggestion through social media and neighbourly is appreciated.

It would be fantastic hearing that hundreds of pipers have taken part.
