Amanda Camm MP has officially cut the ribbon unveiling the new Whitsunday Electorate office in Proserpine, drawing in all types of community members, alongside a surprise appearance from Premier David Crisafulli.
The new office marks a fresh chapter for the Whitsunday electorate, with Ms Camm welcoming and thanking guests through the doors to celebrate the opening alongside her staff, community representatives, students and volunteers.
The Premier was among those in attendance, making a surprise trip to Proserpine to help officially open the office, cut the ceremonial ribbon and chat with attendees, while sharing his optimism for the future of the community.
“There is a future, let me tell you there is a future, and you're living it and you're feeling it at the moment,” Mr Crisafulli said in a speech at the opening.
“[Amanda Camm] loves the community, she’s served it across two levels of government, she believes in you and she fights hard for you.”
Ms Camm used the gathering as an opportunity to recognise several standouts within the community who have gone above and beyond through their time and commitment.
Among those recognised was Lyn Burke, who received a special acknowledgement for her contribution to the community, alongside Val and Michael Kimpton for their efforts in delivering the recent Airlie Beach Triathlon Festival, and Shane from Fierce Signage in Mackay for his quick work installing the new signage in time for the grand opening.
She also recognised members of her electorate team, thanking them for the work they do behind the scenes to support her and the wider Whitsunday community.
“There are so many people here who contribute so much, but really go above and beyond with their time and their commitment,” Ms Camm said.
“In doing so, it really showcases our community as well.”
