The Queensland awards evening and apprenticeship challenge is on the 4th September and there are 17 tables left, as the Hilton Hotel ballroom can only hold 450 guests, so get in now. There are accommodation packages available as well.
So, ring Jane or Doug on 07 3846 5688 to book now or to have us to send out the booking form. Sorry to all those that wanted to nominate apprentices, as we had our quota of 8 on board, some time ago. This will be a fantastic opportunity for the winners as they will each receive a $500 voucher from Wallboard Tools and Pro Plaster as well as the opportunity to represent Australia in New Zealand for the National Apprenticeship challenge. You still have a chance to submit your projects to enter the annual awards competition to determine the best plasterers around the state.
