We are delighted that the extensive collection of memorabilia held by the Campbell Town Centenary Group and local Research and History Group has been able to find a home in the old Court House Building.
The Court House building is owned by the Department of Justice and it has been leased to the Northern Midlands Council which in turn has made it available on a short term basis for this display to commemorate the upcoming ANZAC Centenary.
It is vital that this regional memorabilia is available for public exhibition to mark this historic milestone and the hard work of local historians is commended. One of Tasmania's VCs, Lewis McGee, came from the Campbell Town region.
