On 13 August the first Eumundi Voice hit the streets. More than 70 locals joined the Eumundi Voice team at the Imperial Hotel on Saturday 11 September to celebrate the first-year anniversary of the magazine. Members of the writers’ group received certificates of appreciation for their
work on 28 issues and 1,000 articles! Div 10 Cr David Law presented the awards and commented on the popularity and high quality of the magazine. “We always read it at the council office and I have never once found a spelling error or typo – which is a tribute to the volunteers.” Member for Ninderry Dan Purdie thanked magazine editors Joyce Turnbull and Ruth Hickey and remarked that Eumundi Voice provided a much-valued local news service.
