The Demons will remember the most successful period in the club's history when their back-to-back first XI premierships of 1992 and 1993, plus a second XI flag in 1991, are celebrated.
The premiership reunion will be held on the weekend of February 13-14.
The weekend will begin with a Friday night get-together at White Hills' clubrooms at Scott Street to be followed by the official reunion function on the Saturday night.
Led by captain-coach Max Taylor, the Demons defeated Eaglehawk by 29 runs to win the 1992 premiership, and then backed it up the following year with a six-wicket grand final win over Golden Square.
The 1993 grand final win over Square - highlighted by a bag of 7-52 from Steve Rixon - remains the club's last first XI flag, while the Demons haven't won another second XI premiership since their 1991 triumph over Bendigo United.
"It will be good for the current players to realise there has been some success at the club and it can be done," said Demons' committee member Jock Schofield, who played in both the first XI flags.
Anyone wanting more information on the reunion can contact Schofield on 0419 762 796.
