Aug2011_Get involved in Queensland Week 2012
State Member for Pine Rivers, Carolyn Male MP, is encouraging local community groups to apply for the 2012 Queensland Week sponsorship program. Applications close Friday 2 September 2011.
“The Queensland Week sponsorship program is about encouraging Queenslanders to celebrate the week in a way that reflects the unique culture, heritage and aspirations of our community,” Carolyn Male MP said.
“I encourage community groups to submit an application to host their own event for Queensland Week 2012, to be held from 2 to 11 June."
“Groups can apply for sponsorship support of up to $10,000 per event."
“There was such a great response to last year’s program that we have decided to double the amount of funding on offer for events in 2012 to a total of $100,000."
“Queensland Week is such a celebratory time of year for Queenslanders and I encourage the community to submit their ideas for a 2012 Queensland Week event."
“We’re looking for imaginative and innovative events that reflect and celebrate what’s great about Queensland."
“This may take the form of a concert, festival, markets, parade, barbeque or something that is unique to our region."
“It’s all about whole communities getting involved in a true Queensland celebration.”
Under the 2011 Queensland Week sponsorship program, seven successful applicants contributed to the overall program of Queensland Week events.
