Last week instead of our usual meeting, many Rotarians took the chance to support the Central Goldfields Celebrates event. Mayor Wendy McIvor thanked the Club for supporting the event. This is the first time the evnt was run by the Central Goldfields Shire. They did a wonderful job, utilizing students from MEC to serve the canapes.
 
Bryce Gabell from "Bryce's Bistro" in Talbot won the Individual Young Person's award for making the most out of a career opportunity. Gerry Ryan presented his award, and has also helped Bryce on his path by allowing him to cook Mexican at one of his restaurants -a great man helping wherever he can. Gerry also spoke to the two other finalists. 
 
The Maryborough NewsExpress  Newsagency won the Business award. Well done to Ross and Cheryl Forster and their hard working friendly staff. They have done a brilliant job turning around the agency to have won several other awards now. Our town can feel very proud.
