Nominations are closing soon for Blacktown City Council’s Australia Day Awards and Blacktown Mayor Stephen Bali is urging contenders to get their forms filled out.
“Blacktown Council is proud to recognise those who contribute to the city so it’s really important that members of the community let us know about worthy recipients,” Mayor Bali said.
“If you have someone you want to nominate for one of Council’s Australia Day Awards we need to hear from you soon.
“It would be a shame if an inspiring individual who has worked hard in the community misses out because someone forgot to nominate.”
Blacktown Council’s Australia Day Citizen of the Year, Young Citizen of the Year and Community Event of the Year will be announced by Mayor Bali on Australia Day.
The awards recognise Blacktown residents who have provided outstanding community service or have attained outstanding achievement in education, sport and the arts, or a community group that has organised a major event in Blacktown City.
The Citizen of the Year Award is open to all ages and the Young Citizen of the Year is for people 18 years and under.
The Community Event of the Year is open to community groups who organised an event in Blacktown City during 2017.
Nominations for these awards close on Friday, 5 January 2018.
For more information contact Council’s Events and Sister Cities team on 9839 6000.
Nomination forms are available from Council’s website:
