  1. Ref time capsule in Victory Park. Has it been opened? I’m sure I left a message in it over thirty years ago.

    Interested in the date it’s going to be opened.

    • Hello Linda, Thanks for getting in touch with the Rotary Club of Traralgon! Apologies that it has taken a while to reply – we had to do a bit of detective work 🙂 The current Time Capsule was buried on 6th December 2000 and is due to be reopened in 2025. It is an ongoing process – there was already one at the site in the year 2000 that had been there for approximately 25 years too. If you keep an eye on our Facebook page, we will provide any information to the public regarding any upcoming events, such as opening the time capsule in future. You can also provide us your email address and we will endeavour to keep you up to date! Warmest regards, Helen O’Brien, Deputy Secretary.

    • Hi Tracy, The time capsule is due to be reopened in 2026. I will see if anyone has a record of the contents. For interest, what connection do you have to the capsule? Do you know any of the current Rotarians? Cheers. Rae
