Friday, October 20, 2017
Eltham MLA Vicki Ward has mentioned the Eltham District Historical Society in State Parliament.
“This year we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Eltham District Historical Society (EDHS),” Ms Ward told the Legislative Assembly on Thursday.
“This is a tremendous and important community group which helps our community know and understand whence they came. “Their ongoing dedication to collating, collecting, archiving and protecting our history is priceless.
“There is a dedicated team at EDHS who work very hard in their lovingly refreshed cottage to display our history and celebrate it.
“Their dedication is to be commended. A shout-out to them for their Eltham Barrel trays — I am so glad they found them, and I display them proudly in my office,” Ms Ward said.
