Yesterday Today Tomorrow
The Bribie Island RSL & Citizens Memorial Club has a proud history of accomplishment, spanning almost 30 years.
| 1977 |
Bribie Island RSL constructed and opened its doors. Established as a proud tribute and memorial to all who fought in the wars. Membership was limited to returned service personnel. Entry restricted to returned service personnel and bona fide visitors. |
| 1982 | The Bribie Island RSL Club changed its name to the “Bribie Island RSL & Citizens Memorial Club”. The Bribie RSL was the first club in Queensland to undertake this controversial but very significant change. Membership rights extended to the general public.

Although operating as two independent groups the Board of Management retained a satisfactory and complementary mix of Sub Branch and private members. |
