"This is an opportunity to give back to those people who contribute so much to the Southern Highlands community.

"After more than 35 years of running these awards, I can say that the gratitude that nominees feel when their names are put forward is enormous.

"When they first find out that they have been nominated. Business owners and staff are often overwhelmed and teary to realise how much they mean to their communities.

"Please take this last chance to show them your support."

The awards are only possible thanks to the support of major partners NOVA Employment and Flower Flower and support partners Wingecarribee Shire Council and White Key Marketing.
