For those of you who haven’t seen our monument in action, here’s a quick video from New Years Eve at the lake. Designer and Builder of the memorial, John Jack Fewson travelled from Perth for the day with his wife Judy to pay tribute to the record and to also check his workmanship leading into this special 50th anniversary year, just in case there had been any ground movements or settling over the years. Jack wanted to be sure that the beam of sunlight that travels through the exactly angled hole in the granite at precisely 3.43pm on the 31st December each year and travels across the brass plaque on the ground below the enormous granite effigy was still in synchronicity …after all it has been 29 years! If you look closely you can see the dot of light moving across the plaque exactly as its meant to, which is a credit to Jack. Many thanks to Regan and Harley Bairstow for their fantastic footage!
