Sponsorship Proposal
The Clock Awards, recognising outstanding business in Mudgee, has become one of Mudgee’s most prestigious events.
The Rotary Club of Mudgee Sunrise and Mudgee Chamber of Commerce work together to ensure that the Clock Awards remain the wonderful event it has grown to become.
Although businesses entering this year’s Awards do not need to be a member of the Mudgee Chamber of Commerce, winners who are Chamber members will automatically progress through to the 2019 Western NSW Regional Business Awards. From there, the state and national Awards await those successful. The people of Mudgee will be able to nominate a business for this year’s People’s Choice Award. The category awards will be judged by an independent panel from outside the region and these judges must declare any conflict of interest
Since the Clock Awards began in 2006, $25,000 has been directly donated to local charities, with 2009 and 2010 proceeds being matched by the Mudgee Guardian and The Weekly. In 2010, our donation of $5,000 and its matching Mudgee Guardian and The Weekly donation went a long way towards the purchase of a new humidicrib for Mudgee District Hospital.
In 2014, Mudgee Scouts benefited from the Awards with a Clock Awards donation of $5,000; further donations to the Scouts emanated from the 2014 awards with $1,500 from the Mudgee Guardian, $2,000 from Wilpinjong Coal Mine and a commitment from AK Constructions for four weeks’ labour towards work on the Scout Hall.
In 2016, LifeSkills was our chosen charity and a cheque of $5,000 was presented to LifeSkills. This donation was made possible by the generosity of our Clock Awards sponsors and went directly towards the creation of a sensory garden for people with a disability.
It is intended that the event will always be a fundraiser for the Mudgee community.
