You can't miss the  Iron Horse and its rider, an Australian Lighthorseman already at the Library. It was kindly lent for the exhibition by Mr Stewart Thompson, a member of the Light Horse Association who led the Cooee March Re-Enactment in 1986. 

If anyone in the district has World War 1 memorability that could be lent to the exhibition it would be greatly appreciated.
