…especially if you’ve recently been recognised for your amazing efforts.
Some extraordinary locals have been receiving accolades for ‘a job well done’ both regionally and statewide.
Locals, Mark & Leanne Shields, of Shields Auto Repairs took out the Automotive Services category of the 2014 Hunter Local Business Awards. The tirelessly working dynamic duo managed to mobilise enough of their 2000 business supporters to get more nominations submitted in one week than it took most to get in the eleven week nomination period. An indication of the strength and loyalty of their customer base that has grown from word of mouth due to their mechanical expertise, enthusiasm, friendliness and honesty.
The Tidy Towns crew, Kelly Hoare and Lyn Pacoe pulled together another overall win for Toronto in the Tidy Towns Population Category D (4,001 – 10,000). Congratulations to all the drivers of the projects and the passengers that support them.
There was a Tidy Town triumph in the Environmental Education section for the Toronto Fire Station’s Model Fire Retardant Native Garden thanks to the amazing efforts of Fire Station Commander Tim Brown and Landcaring legend Lois Simpson.
There was also a win in Litter Reduction Award for the Tossers Can be Binners program spearheaded by Steve Dewar and supported by all the converted tossers in town. The Lake Macquarie Light Rail received a Highly Commended award so here’s to you Choo.
The combined efforts of enthusiastic locals implementing great ideas is what makes our neck of the woods such a great place to be. Yeah team Toronto!
