Enormous honour to spend time this week with Roy Guenther from Traralgon on the eve of his 100th birthday. Roy is a World War 2 veteran who still enjoys catching a taxi to his local pub each week to place a few bets! Thank you for your service. #TYFYS #lovegippsland @DVAAus https://t.co/So3hYWwqDP

As a teenager, I gave the luderick a hard time spear fishing off the tip of the rock wall in the middle of this magnificent photo of the Gippsland Lakes. Thanks @SmethurstSue for sharing. Beautiful part of #lovegippsland https://t.co/UmPE8VOu6a

Happy birthday to local Army veteran Arthur "Roy" Guenther, who is turning 100 tomorrow.
It was great to spend some time with Roy and thank him for his service to our nation.
Roy is a World War II veteran, who served in the infantry with the 57th/60th Battalion known as the Hard and Bold Regiment. Roy also served in New Guinea for 18 months and Bougainville for 20 months.
Thanks to CEO Janet Moore and all the dedicated staff at Yallambee, who have gone above and beyond to make the milestone a memorable one for Roy and his family. Enjoy the celebrations! #lovegippsland #myvalley

The house that love built...
Rotary Centenary House in Traralgon is set to expand with a $2.1 million upgrade now underway.
Foundation works have started on site at Valley Drive, Traralgon for the stage three expansion. The upgrade will involve the construction of 13 new independent units to be built by local company, Kingbuilt.
Centenary House provides a vital accommodation service to patients from across Gippsland undergoing treatment at Latrobe Regional Hospital and their families.
This project is a credit to the hard work of Rotarians across Gippsland and the Latrobe Valley. I was pleased to be able to secure $900,000 for the project, through the Federal Government’s Regional Jobs and Investment Package. #myvalley #lovegippsland

An exciting new look for our iconic PC-21 RAAF Roulettes has been unveiled in Canberra today.
It won't be long until Gippslanders get to see for themselves the eye-catching design of the Roulettes practising in the skies above our region.
The Roulettes are an aerobatic display team viewed by millions of people each year that showcase our world class pilots. They are based locally at RAAF Base East Sale.
Starting next year, all pilots for the Navy, Army and Airforce will commence their training at East Sale as part of the new Basic Flight Training School. The training school is expected to deliver a $15 million a year boost to the Gippsland economy on top of the current $12 million per year in Defence direct wages and supplies. #lovegippsland
