VOLCANIC VICTORS... Unlike so many events in recent months, the 2021 Volcanic Plateau Master Plumbers Awards Night Dinner and Graduation Ceremony eventually managed to go ahead this January, providing an awesome opportunity to celebrate the region’s winners and top-performing apprentices.
“It was super awesome that we managed to hold our awards night,” says Sarah Jamieson of BOP Plumbing and Gas, who organises the event with husband and Volcanic Plateau Master Plumbers President Aaron Jamieson. Held in Rotorua and opened by Rotorua Mayor Steve Chadwick, the event was attended by many of the branch’s 33 member companies, their staff and apprentices, with speakers including New Zealand CEO Greg Wallace and National President Jon Lewis. The McBeth family of Taupō-based McBeth Plumbing & Gas were the star performers on the night, taking away no fewer than four awards, including the Volcanic Plateau Tradesman of the Year.
