The LNA Master Landscapers Association hosted the 2016 Landscape Excellence Awards on Friday night at Doltone House in Pyrmont. The Hills Bark Blower kindly provided Tim 'Rosso' Ross, Radio and Media Star and social commentator to host the event. Together with guest speaker Linda Ross from the Garden Clinic, Tim brought his unique brand of humour to the role and had everyone smiling throughout the evening.
The evening was a resounding success with awards being presented for 28 categories across Residential Construction & Maintenance, Commercial Construction & Maintenance and recognising Outstanding Landscaping Professionals and Apprentices. With the outstanding number and quality of entries, Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards were bestowed in most categories. This has been without a doubt the most successful awards season yet with a greater variation of winners than ever before.
In addition to the Awards, at the close of the evening, the outgoing LNA President, Matt Leacy, introduced the LNA's new Chairwoman for the 2016/2017 Board, Judy Bates. The Awards evening signifies the end of the 2015/2016 Board's tenure with the new Board Members taking up their roles.
The LNA would like to recognise and thank all the corporate partners and award category partners who help make this evening such a huge success and congratulate all the night's winners!
