Australia Day Awards Judging Panel
Council’s annual Australia Day Awards recognise actions and abilities of groups and individuals that have enhanced the social connectivity of our community through personal contribution or through an event that has added value and enjoyment to the lives of others.
The selection of these worthy recipients is equally important where an independent judging panel will review the selection criteria and determine who will receive the awards.
The Australia Day Awards committee consists of up to seven members, who have nominated and been appointed by Council.
Council is currently looking to appoint two judges, one with experience in Sports and Recreation and another judge, who currently resides in Gin Gin who can identify suitable candidates from the community and champion the appropriate person/group to be nominated for the award.
Judges will have the following skills and attributes:

- Identifying suitable candidates or groups to be awarded in the various eligible categories
The panel currently consists of judges from diverse backgrounds and experiences, including but not limited to people with lived experiences that encompass:
