Centenary Torch Relay
Legacy has been celebrating its centenary this year with its Legacy Centenary Torch Relay.
The relay started in France in April and commenced its journey across Australia at Albany, Western Australia, on May 3.
"It is due in Queanbeyan on Wednesday, August 9, and is slowly making its way to other clubs as it makes its way to Melbourne in October," Ms Landells said.
Support Legacy Badge Week, local mural project
Expect to see Legatees out and about at the end of August for Legacy Badge Week.
Volunteers will be selling Legacy Badges and other merchandise to raise funds for their valuable work.
The six Legatees who live in Narooma have another project underway for which they must raise funds.
"We intend having a mural on the amenities block near the Arch of Remembrance to celebrate the 100th year.
"We are trying to raise funds to pay for an artist, Samantha Wortelhock, to paint a mural depicting a Remembrance poppy field," Ms Landells said.
It is a public building and the mural has the full support of Eurobodalla Shire Council and Narooma RSL.
