YOUTH ACHIEVER AWARDS

Last Wednesday evening Rotarian Terry O’Neill represented our Club at the 15th Annual, Warrnambool and Moyne Youth Achiever Awards, held at the Lighthouse Theatre. There were almost 150 nominations for the achievement awards and these awards were capably run and judged by the Warrnambool and Moyne Youth Councils.

There were awards for Art & Culture, Community & Leadership and both Sport & Academia, with our Rotary club sponsoring the overall award winners.

On Tuesday night two of these young achievers were guests of our Club:

The Moyne male Overall Youth Achiever of the year, Locky Moir and the Warrnambool female Overall Youth Achiever of the Year, Lucinda Watson. Unfortunately the two other Overall award winners, Sara Bolch, the Moyne female Overall Youth achiever of the year, and Nick Young, the Warrnambool male Overall Youth Achiever of the year, were unable to attend due to other commitments and wished to thank the Rotary Club of Warrnambool for their generous sponsorship of the Awards.

Locky and Lucinda spoke to members about their achievements and thanked the Club for its sponsorship. These young people are to be commended for their achievements and are worthy recipients of these awards.
