Well, its been another year since the NSW Local Government Excellence in the environment Awards...
This year, I again was invited to judge the 'Louise Petchell Memorial Award for Individual Sustainability" Award, and then, present the award to the recipient.
This year, the event was held at the Dockside Function Centre, Darling Harbour; in 33c heat!! YAY, we ALL know how much I HATE wearing a suit and tie, right!!
Lunch was impressive, and I had the 'Seared Salmon Supreme, Almond Crusted with aged red wine sauce, caramelised vine ripens tomatoes & asparagus tip (which I left of course) on a bed of mash...
For dessert, I had the Mango & Raspberry sorbet cake, with a seasonal berry compote with a passionfruit coulis...
At the conclusion of the event, all of the awardees had an official photo taken, below, I will be sent the pics hopefully tomorrow, so I will update then with another post etc...
I would like to thank all those associated with the Awards, and making Louise's memorial even more important today, 6 years after her passing...

I think it's so wonderful that Louise's name and memory lives on in an arena that was so dear to her heart. Well done to everyone concerned.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful tribute. And so appropriate to be given in the name of Louise, who lived and loved her job bringing Sustainability to Australia!
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine you in your suite and tie in that terrible heat! lol!
