Nominations open for Cardinia's Henwood Awards

Nominations for this year's Cardinia Shire's Stan Henwood Awards are now open.
The awards recognise the dedication of shire citizens to the community.

In addition to receiving an OAM for his community service he also received a Prime Minister's medal for service to sport.
