Heart of the District Awards

Queenstown Lakes District Council arts and events facilitator Jan Maxwell wants a record turnout for the 10th Annual Heart of the District Awards this Thursday night.

The awards recognise the sterling work done by the district’s volunteers and Mrs Maxwell said everyone was welcome to come along and applaud their efforts.

“The people nominated for the awards have often given years of support to the community and its organisations, “ Mrs Maxwell said, “ We’d like to see the community repay that in kind by coming along to support them on their special night.”

Tickets for the Heart of the District Awards cost $10 and are available from QLDC offices. Door sales will be available.

The Heart of the District Awards take place at 7pm this Thursday night 19 April, 2012 at the Memorial Hall, Queenstown.
