The Territory Remembers will form part of the NTs wider ANZAC Centenary program running from 2014-1018. The Territory Remembers will build on the community interest already generated by events in this program such as The Borella Ride. The Ride retraced the remarkable journey of the Territorys only Victoria Cross recipient Albert Borella from Tennant Creek to Darwin to enlist in World War I, Mr Giles said. It drew huge crowds at communities up and down the track and we have decided to fund a permanent commemoration to the Borella Ride in Tennant Creek as part of Budget 2015.
