The Auckland Club attended 2026 Anzac Day parades in Browns Bay.

The morning was perfect and the dawn parade was blessed with the sun rising over the ocean.

We had our largest Anzac Day turnout in Auckland which was fantastic to see as the club grows from strength to strength.

SAMVOA certificates were handed out to those members in attendance.
