OFFICER'S RECOMMENDATION THAT: Maitland City Council provide $3,000 plus GST from within current budgetary allocations to the Maitland Show Society to assist in the conduct of the 2006 Miss Maitland Showgirl Competition REPORT The Miss Maitland Showgirl Competition is a long established tradition in the Maitland area and provides young local women with the opportunity to enhance both their individual life opportunities and their potential contribution to our community and its residents. In previous years the Miss Maitland Showgirl Competition has benefited from Maitland City Council’s support in a variety of ways including, most recently, section 356 contribution. The Society’s request for support this year amounts to $3,000 plus GST to address total competition costs of $10,664. For 2006 it has been considered appropriate to treat the Miss Maitland Showgirl Competition as a promotional and marketing opportunity for the Council and City and, in those terms, to source its requested support from within existing marketing and public relations allocations. Funds are available within these allocations for this purpose. Page 2 ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA 24 JANUARY, 2006 MISS MAITLAND SHOWGIRL SPONSORSHIP (Cont.) CONCLUSION The Miss Maitland Showgirl Competition is a significant opportunity for many aspiring young residents to develop their communication skills and self-confidence and their capacity to contribute on a range of levels to the development of our City. Support for the proposed 2006 sponsorship is therefore strongly recommended. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS As detailed in the report. Support beyond 2006 will be subject to discussions with the Maitland Show Society and, if appropriate, further report to Council. POLICY IMPLICATIONS This matter has no specific policy implications for Council. STATUTORY IMPLICATIONS There are no statutory implications under the Local Government Act 1993 with this matter. Page 3 ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA 24 JANUARY, 2006 9.1.2 STARSTRUCK SPONSORSHIP 2006 File No: 10/5 Responsible Officer: David Evans General Manager Author: Roger Stephan Executive Manager Economic Development and Marketing EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Council for a number of years supported ‘Starstruck’ as a minor sponsor and in 2005 sponsored the event on a one-off basis as segment sponsor. The ‘Starstruck’ show, produced by the Arts Unit of the NSW Department of Education and Training, is widely supported across the Hunter and Central Coast area and is presented annually at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre. This report invites Council to undertake “Segment” sponsorship of the event on a recurrent basis in future years. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION THAT: 1. An amount of $7,700 (including GST) be allocated from Council’s 2005 / 2006 Marketing allocation to fund sponsorship of the Starstruck event to be held in June 2006 2. Maitland City Council commit to long term segment sponsorship to the Starstruck event 3. A report be provided to Council on progress of the event and any proposed changes to sponsorship arrangements REPORT Maitland City Council has for a number of years supported the annual NSW DET ‘Starstruck’ show as a minor and most recently segment sponsor. Starstruck – presented at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre – comprises three hours of live music, dance, movement and drama and involves upwards of 3,300 students from primary and high schools across

The primary purpose of the work is to define, as concisely as possible, the principal events or catalysts that were I influential in the unique development of a particular area. It is not so much a "what" history as a "how" or "why" history although, in its explication, it does provide a considerable wealth of detail with respect to I the "whats" of history. With respect to the latter, detailed analysis and I discussion of sites, events and personalities of the Maitland district have been included in several local histories and secondary studies. These works have examined a wealth of primary material as well as contributing I considerable local understanding and observations that have been invaluable in the formation of this thematic overview.

  • Big Freeze Newcastle 2017 Event Report
    BIG FREEZE NEWCASTLE EVENT & 2017 BIG FREEZE BALL Event Report Find us on social media @bigfreezenewcastle @BigFreezeNewcastle INSIDE COVER WHAT IS THE BIG FREEZE NEWCASTLE? Big Freeze Newcastle is the biggest campaign for awareness and research for a cure for Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in the Hunter. The Big Freeze initiative is in its fourth year in Melbourne and in 2017 sporting champions slid into a pool of ice at the MCG, helping to raise more than $4 million for research to fight Motor Neurone Disease. The man behind bringing the Big Freeze event to Newcastle, Phil Camden, who has the incurable disease, was thrilled to see the generosity of Novocastrians who reached out to support the initiative. “With two people in Australia dying from Motor Neurone Disease every day, many local people have a connection with MND in some way and for them to see the outpouring of support from the local community is so important. It certainly means so much to me”, he said. Four years ago, Phil was a Senior Pastor of a church in Newcastle and while on a holiday and swimming in the ocean, he began to drown as weakness in his muscles set in. “Fast forward a few months from my holiday and I am in a doctor’s room being told I have an incurable disease and only have a year to live,” said Phil. “I am committing all the time I have left to do what I can to support those living with MND and realise a future where the doctors can say to people like me that they have a cure.” Phil lead the charge in bringing the Freeze to Newcastle, working with a local committee partnering with the Newcastle City Blues (AFL) and the Cure for MND Foundation.
