Working on the levee bank
Beverley Gartery (nee Pedler) recalls that this photo 'was taken on the evening of 17 August 1956. Beverley Pedler, Margaret Mosel and Jillian Anderson were patrolling a section of the Renmark North flood bank. The men of the district (BLOCK E) were very tired after many weeks of working to build the bank by day & then having to patrol it at night in case of breaks in the bank. We three young girls were all daughters of fruit growers in the area so we were able to relieve the men for a few hours at night'. The photograph was taken by a member of 'The News Flood Squad' and appeared on the front page of 'The News' on Saturday 18 August 1956.
