Australia Day awards launched

The search is on for the next Bathurst Citizen of the Year.

Mayor of Bathurst Cr Jess Jennings said Council has reviewed the Australia Day awards and the Living Legends program and is launching a new suite of Australia Day awards.

“This Australia Day, we will recognise Bathurst’s Citizen of the Year, along with our Living Legends, the Event of the Year Awards and the Youth Arts Awards.

“The Citizen of the Year award is now open for nominations. The award will recognise the outstanding achievement and contribution made by a member of the community to the Bathurst Local Government Area,” Cr Jennings said.

“The Citizen of the Year award will now be administered by Council as part of the Australia Day activities. For many years, 2BS has supported the Citizen of the Year award and we thank them for the role they have played in selecting and recognising the outstanding contribution of individuals who have been named Citizen of the Year.”

“Living Legends will now also be recognised on Australia Day, moving from its traditional Proclamation Day timeframe. Criteria for the Legends nomination process remain the same.”

“Given that the Legends program also recognises the commitment and dedication of community members, it is a natural fit to bring this award in line with the Citizen of the Year award as part of our Australia Day celebrations.

“The Event of the Year awards have also been refreshed with a new category added. Awards will be presented for the Destination Event of the Year, the Community Event of the Year; and an additional category which will be presented to the most outstanding New Event of the Year,” Cr Jennings said.

The Jo Ross Memorial Award, Heritage Trust awards and the Youth Arts Awards will also return in 2024.

For more information on the awards, the nomination criteria and timelines, visit Council’s website.

Works will commence next week on new fencing for Eglinton Oval made possible with $42,000 from the NSW Government Community Building Partnership 2022 grant funding program and matched funding provided by Council.

Mayor Jess Jennings said the oval is a popular place for the community to play sports, exercise, and get together.

“Good sporting facilities enhance the general quality of life and make the area a more pleasant and sociable place to live.

“The new fencing will greatly improve the look of the facility but more importantly will provide a solid safety barrier that will keep kids and other park users safe, he said.

Member for Bathurst Paul Toole said the State Government funds will deliver much-needed improvements to Eglinton Oval.

“This is fantastic news for the Eglinton community who use this oval daily,” said Mr Toole.

“Eglinton Oval is a popular place for the local community to get together to play and train for sports, exercise and relax.”

The new perimeter field fencing will complement the upgraded playground, basketball court and the barbecue area.

Council has engaged Bathurst based contractors Intent Rail Pty Ltd to undertake the perimeter fencing replacement works.
