Australia Day celebrations in Hastings are being organised by the Western Port Festival committee and take place mainly on the Hastings Foreshore.
They start at 10am with a free community brunch, sponsored (somewhat strangely) by the Grand Hotel which is in Mornington. At the same time there will be live music by the Western Port Regional Band and the group Reworkt. Also at this time there will be children's rides and games.
The flag raising will be at 11am with the Tingara naval cadets and an Australia Day address by Robert Walls. Robert Walls played football for 15 years for Carlton and Fitzroy and captained Victoria. He played in Premierships in 1968, 70 and 72. He then coached for 16 years at Fitzroy, Carlton, Brisbane and Richmond and in 1987 was Carlton Premiership coach. He coached Victoria in last State of Origin game in 1999. He currently works for AFL media with Channel 10, 3AW, The Age and FOXfooty.
