2025 VAS Ltd Rural Ambassador Award State Final Information Day
We had 7 of our 8 Ambassadors attend the information day in Bendigo and it was a great success! It was great the ambassadors got to hear the insights from Caitlin Grieve last years 2024 State Final Winner and also get some great feedback on their impromptu speeches they presented on the day!
They also had the opportunity to attend the RB Sellars Bendigo Store to try on their uniform. We thank them again for coming on board to dress our ambassadors! I’m sure they will look great as a group again come September at the Melbourne Royal Show!
