Cardwell RSL Commences 2026

The Cardwell RSL opened the doors for 2026 on Sunday 8th February with their AGM and fundraiser barbeque.  The general meeting saw an exceptional attendance of 25 committee members.

The RSL was buzzing with activity, as the community gathered to show their support and band together for an important cause.

“We look forward to another productive year in 2026. We’re delighted to have the communities support”, said President Robert Lang.

2026 will bring no shortage of important events with ANZAC Day, Remembrance Day and Vietnam Veterans Day serving as important occasions through which the RSL is able to celebrate and commemorate the community.

“Over the last five years, it’s just gotten better. From 2021 onwards we’ve seen the trajectory go upwards.”

The RSL’s success has seen the team afford the opportunity to give back to the community, providing support to various schools and social clubs in the area.

“We spread the life and we’re very happy to do it.”

If you’re interested in supporting the RSL, there are numerous ways to get involved.

“Come to our barbecues. Come and join the bingo. By supporting us, we can maintain the building and maintain the overheads and costs. The more public support we get, the better.”

2026 looks to be another fruitful year for the Cardwell RSL. It is great to see the ongoing community support and interest by the public is greatly encouraged. A fine effort for Rob and the team!!
