Let's support our batonbearers
Line the streets and cheer this Sunday 11 February, 4pm to 6pm
Trevor Vincent (pictured) is a Steeplechase champion who won Gold for Australia at the 1962 Perth Commonwealth Games.

He is just one of the amazing community members chosen to carry the Queen's Baton through Frankston City this Sunday 11 February, 4pm to 6pm.

You are encouraged to show your support (and be a part of history) by lining the streets to cheer them on. There will be spot prizes on the day for groups and schools who do our city proud, by wearing bright colours and cheering the loudest.

The Queen's Baton Relay Relay will travel travel through Frankston City, this Sunday (11 February) between 4pm and 6pm. It will leave from PARC and finish at the Frankston Waterfront Festival. And there will be free family friendly activities at four sites on the relay route from 3pm.
