Winners announced at ONSW Annual Presentation Dinner

Last Updated: Monday, 12 November 2012 12:11

The Annual ONSW Presentation Dinner was held on Saturday 10 November at the Showground in Castle Hill.  A new format for the event was the brainchild of Marketing Officer Ian Jessup and with attendance significantly up on 2011 it seemed that preceding the formal dinner with a family friendly orienteering competition was a definite hit.
