enhancing environmental, economic or social prosperity for the Shire to stand up and be counted!

Nominate now and showcase our community’s’ achievements".

Nominations are now open in five categories:
• Business Enterprise Award
• Events and Tourism Award

• Community of the Year Award.

Award criteria and nomination forms are available at all Sponsors branches and offices. You can
also call the local awards office on 98997251 or visit the website www.awardsaustralia.com

Nominations close on August 11.

It's been three years now since Ian ‘Mac’ McArthur entered a jewellery competition, finally
he has and he has won again.

This time it is a first place win in the Object D'Art section of the Yowah Designer Jewellery competition.

The winning piece is a diamond studded opal handle on a stainless steel lock knife.
The winning piece will be on display at the Lightning Ridge Opal Festival next weekend and
will then return to Mac's studio at East End Bello.

Congratulations Mac, we were beginning to think that you had run out of inspiration.
