MOVE will open the doors to a brand-new Museum experience and it is worth noting one particular collection.
The late Dick Clayton was well known for many pursuits and much of his life was spent doing things for others in the community.
Dick loved history and for many years was the historian at the Shepparton RSL. He started the Darwin Defenders branch off the Goulburn Valley and was also instrumental in establishing a memorial at the entrance to the Shepparton Showgrounds. The Rookies Garden commemorates the 2,500 Army and 37,000 Air Force personnel who completed their basic (rookie) training there during World War II.
What few people know is that Dick was also part of the original push to establish a museum for Shepparton.
Dick donated his personal collection of radios, gramophones and telephones to MOVE and the new museum will finally see them properly displayed.
Just reading the dials of the old radios, with the original call signs of stations that broadcast across the region, is a walk down memory lane and another way for people to explore our social history.
