1915 - 2015
Plaque:
This memorial is dedicated to all from Ararat & District who enlisted in the Great War 1914 - 1918.
They shall not grow old
As we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them
Nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them
Lest we forget
Unveiled by Major General Tim McOwan AO, DSC, CSM on 25th April 2015
