Myall Lakes residents are encouraged to wear something orange this Wednesday May 22, to support and celebrate our local SES Volunteers.
Member for Myall Lakes, Tanya Thompson said Wear it Orange Wednesday (WOW Day) is an important reminder of the selflessness and generosity they give to our community.
“We have faced an unprecedented number of natural disasters in recent years, including devastating floods and fires, and with the help of these local heroes we have made it through,” Mrs Thompson said.
“On behalf of the entire community, I would like to express my gratitude to our SES Volunteers, who put service above self all year-round.”
“This WOW day I encourage everyone across the Myall Lakes to wear a touch of orange to show your appreciation to our local Mid North Coast SES Brigade.”
WOW Day forms part of National Volunteer Week, an annual celebration that honours and celebrates contributions of volunteers across the country.
National Volunteer Week runs from 20-26 May 2024 and this year’s theme is ‘Something for Everyone.’
