Camden Civic Centre wins again!

The Camden Civic Centre has won the prestigious,

Restaurant and Caterers, Southern Districts Function Centre of the Year 2005.

This is the second consecutive year the Camden Civic Centre has won this award. The Camden Civic Centre now moves on to compete for the NSW title later this year.

A special congratulation needs to be given to the centres manager, Philippa Percy. The amount of time and effort she puts into the centre and its guests is astonishing. It would be fair to say this award could not have been won once, let alone twice without her.

From her work colleagues at the Camden Civic Centre

“Thanks Phil”
