The Katikati Returned Services Club’s building was opened on 22 July 1961. The club’s memorial shrine incorporates a wooden tablet listing the names of men from the district who made the supreme sacrifice in the two world wars. The names are identical with those on the Katikati War Memorial Hall, although the ranks are given more fully. After the Katikati RSA and Citizens clubrooms were extended in 1992 a mural was added to the exterior of the building. The mural by artist Geoffrey Fuller, unveiled in 1996, includes 24 wartime scenes from campaigns in which Katikati servicemen and women have been involved.
