It is National Volunteers Week! A big shout out to all the Rathmines Catalina Volunteers!

Members and Supporters |
Will you join us as a member? A warm welcome awaits you! We are actively looking for enthusiastic people who are interested in preserving the history of the Rathmines RAAF base and honouring the servicemen and women who gave so much. If you are interested to find out more about being a member, what we do and where your skills and experience could fit in, please contact the President Bill Anderson for a chat. |
Can you help support this important Catalina restoration project? Donations are what makes it possible. Rathmines Catalina Association is registered as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) Organisation. Donations of $2.00 or more in cash or products may be tax deductible. A DGR receipt will be provided for your taxation records. For more information contact info@rathmines-catalina.com Our volunteers raise funds in as many ways as we can - running tours of the RAAF base, the biennial Catalina Festival, and so on - and we have wonderful support from a number of local businesses and other organisations. We give our time freely, but restoring an old aircraft requires all sorts of parts, services and equipment! Please consider becoming a supporter and donating to this important local project of national historical significance. Our President Bill Anderson will be happy to discuss this with you. |  |
