The hanging of a spar.

On Monday 23 February a piece of history was put in the Aldinga Library. The spar from the Star of Greece mast was hung above the entrance to the Community Room.

The Star of Greece was shipwrecked off the coast of Port Willunga on Friday 13 July 1888. This ship was only 200 metres from shore.
