The biennial Katikati & Waihi Beach Community Awards are being held this year on 3 September.
The awards are an acknowledgement of excellence in all sectors of the community within the Katikati and Waihi Beach region. There are 12 awards in total; two awards will be judged by a panel of business people and ten awards are voted via the people’s choice.
Both communities are unique, active and creative, a place where locals love to live, and visitors want to come back to. Waihi Beach strives to be the best seaside village in Aotearoa and Katikati is overflowing with the arts and proud to be the Avocado Capital.
But these achievements aren’t something that just happens. A tremendous amount of passionate work goes in behind the scenes of all our wonderful communities and business organisations. These awards are a chance to recognise those important and hard working groups and individuals.
Submissions and nominations open on 2 June, so keep an eye on the Waihi Beach Facebook page for details on how to enter.
