Awards For Regional Achievers Now Open For Nominations

The Queensland Regional Achievement & Community Awards have been officially launched in Mackay and the search has commenced for unsung heroes within our community.

Proudly presented by Channel 7 Queensland, the Awards aim to acknowledge and reward our regional heroes. The Awards provide an opportunity for communities around the state to embrace and salute the success of our local achievers through youth leadership, events, community service, environmental practices and regional development. We are calling on you to nominate someone you know in one of the Award categories:

• The Prime Super Community of the Year Award

• The Peabody Environment and Landcare Award

• The Origin Energy Regional Service Award

• The Reay Services Energy and Sustainability Award **NEW**

• The Safeguard Events and Tourism Award

• The Styleprint Youth Leadership Award

By nominating someone you know, you will give them the chance to win great prizes thanks to the Commonwealth Bank. As the major prize patron, Commonwealth Bank will present each award winner with a $2,500 Visa Debit Mastercard Account and each winner will be put forward for the Commonwealth Bank Special Commendation Award, with the chance to win a further $2,500.

Winners will be announced in Toowoomba at the Gala Dinner Presentation hosted by the Clive Berghoffer Events Centre at the Toowoomba Showgrounds, on Saturday 9th November 2013.
