To inspire you to donate to the Ray Whiteman Heritage Fence, let us paint you a picture of this awesome carved sandstone tribute to Ray and to reflect the heritage of Glenorie District….
There will be two entrances of four piers each. The Northern entrance will have the dedication pier to Ray complimented by a First Nations pier to recognise our indigenous roots. The other two entrance piers will show the flora (flannel flower) and fauna (swamp wallaby) of the Glenorie District.
The Southern Entrance Piers, with the new path leading to and around the cenotaph, will bear the military emblems - Navy, Army, Air Force and Merchant Navy - to respect our servicemen who fought for our country in the many conflicts in which Australians have served.
The remaining five piers will further reflect our District heritage:
Early settlement - Convicts building The Great North Road and the development of the sandstone quarries in our surrounding area;
Early transport - Glenorie Bus Company snub- nosed school bus;
Early agriculture - citrus tree representing the orchards in our district,
Sport - the Glenorie District Cricket Club, which has been going since 1893
Community Service – symbols of community groups protecting us from fires and floods.
Please note: Council supports the proposal to use engraved brick pavers as a way for the community raise funds for the Ray Whiteman Memorial Fence. Any engraved brick pavers produced will be installed on the site of the Glenorie Memorial Hall, 1729 Old Northern Rd, Glenorie.
The final location and installation details will be determined by Council once the final number of pavers is known. Sponsorship of engraved brick pavers is limited to private individuals and families. Sponsorship from commercial entities would NOT be permitted. Council’s support is provided on the basis that all proceeds from any engraved brick pavers is to be allocated to the construction of the Ray Whiteman Memorial Fence.
