About
The Swansea RSL Sub-Branch Rising Sun Memorial has become an iconic memorial in Lake Macquarie. The memorial is located on the foreshore of the Swansea Channel, and depicts the rising sun of the Australian Imperial Force. The memorial is positioned, so the sun rising in the morning shines through the structure. The memorial is the centrepiece of Swansea RSL Sub-Branch's Anzac and Remembrance Day Commemoration. Opened on 25 April 2015 by Federal Member for Shortland, Jill Hall MP, Senator Arthur Sinodinos representing the Minister for Veterans Affairs, Yasmin Catley MP, State Member for Swansea and Clr Jason Pauling representing the NSW Minister for Veterans Affairs.
