This modern building is a credit to the efforts of many dedicated shipmates of the Sub Section and the support of the local community - particularly Patron of the Sub Section, Councillor David Dwyer of Moreton Bay Shire Council and the former Mayor of Pine Rivers Shire Yvonne Chapman who was the previous Patron of the Sub Section.

The Sub Section is vibrant, participating at State Conference and attending all State Council-sponsored activities including barbeques and outings. A lively interchange of ideas occurs between shipmates and lots of social interaction is evident.

The Sub Section provides many facilities and services to members including Welfare and Pensions assistance. The Sub Section has several dedicated TIP-trained Welfare officers and a dedicated Advocate / Pensions Officer.

Pine Rivers Sub Section meets on the 4th Monday of each Month at 1930 7.30pm -

All members are invited to attend, visitors are welcome. New members are very welcome. Please telephone the Secretary or the President for details or further information.
