42 Sunshine Coasters get Fisher Australia Day Awards for community service

Forty-two local residents were recognised for outstanding community service at the 13th annual Fisher Community Australia Day Awards, hosted by Member for Fisher Peter Slipper.

“These dedicated and hard-working residents don’t seek recognition for what they do, but Australia Day gives us an opportunity to say thanks publicly and to let them know that we do recognise their contributions, which are very much appreciated,” Mr Slipper said.

“Each year, the Fisher Community Australia Day Awards provide a great opportunity to give public recognition to these individuals and organisations that dedicate themselves to the community,” Mr Slipper said.

The annual Fisher Community Australia Day Awards were established by Mr Slipper in 2000, to recognise those who volunteer their own time to make their community a better place to live.

Recipients are recognised for their contributions in the areas of community service, industry and commerce, the arts, sport and recreation, and for their work with seniors’ groups, sporting clubs, youth organisations and the like.

Nomination forms for 2013 are available from Mr Slipper’s office.
