Accompanying the website, St Kilda Football Club’s Heritage Museum at RSEA Park will be updated to physically showcase the Saints’ many stories, including a fan-curated display reflecting on some of the club’s most fondly remembered moments.
The new exhibit will be unveiled early this week with further details to come.
Additionally, saints150.com.au will launch a ‘Wall of Saints’ in the lead-up to Round 3, which will allow members and fans to search or add their name to the wall in celebration of the club’s 150th year.
