It is the centenary of the Commonwealth Lighthouse Service, and there are various celebrations and events being planned. Jack Duvoisin writes: 'With annual reunions of past and present lighthouse staff held in Brisbane for some 25 years, planning is proceeding for the main Centenary Year celebration function to be held at the Queensland Maritime Museum on Saturday 4 July from 10 am onwards. The Australian Society of Marine Artists will be holding their annual exhibition, with the theme “Lighting the Darkness” at the Queensland Maritime Museum to be opened on 4 July as part of the Celebration day and to run until 27 September. We are trying to reach as many former lighthouse service staff and their families as possible to give them the chance to be part of this once in a century opportunity.'
