Our home in the Southern Highlands

In the early days The Salvation Army in Bowral did not have its own hall. Meetings were held in the Oddfellows hall and the Temperance Union Hall. In 1925, a new citadel in Bundaroo Street was opened by Commissioner Whatmore. The newspaper The Mail, reported it as a suitable wooden building, fitted with electric light and conveniences. In 1980, a new citadel was opened by Commissioner Leo Ward.
