Moulamein, Moama and Barham all made it on to the prestigious list, and there’s one week left to vote for your favourite.
An initiative of the NSW Tourism Industry Council and Business NSW, the awards recognise regional tourism towns across NSW that deliver amazing visitor experiences and are committed to growing visitation to their destination.
Mayor Chris Bilkey said the awards were an exciting platform to showcase local attractions and unique visitor experiences.
“The awards are about highlighting our towns’ amazing visitor experiences and showcasing the collaborative efforts of tourism operators, businesses, and the local community to drive the visitor economy,” Cr Bilkey said.
“With many businesses still recovering after the impacts of the last two years, we couldn’t think of a better way to boost business in Moama, Barham and Moulamein than celebrating our tourism credentials.
“It’s a credit to our local operators in these towns that we have been named finalists, so I would encourage locals to throw their support behind them and jump online today and vote while there is still time.”
Voting is restricted to one town per category, with Moulamein in the population under 1500 category, Barham in the population under 5000 category and Moama in the population over 5000.
While there is only a short voting period, those who do vote will be in with the chance to win one of five double adult passes and one of five family passes to the 2022 Moama Lights event.
Simply share a screen shot of your vote to the Visit River Country Facebook post about the awards and you’ll be in with a chance to win.
Voting closes Wednesday, April 27, at 5pm, with one top town winner from each category announced at the Local Government NSW Destination and Visitor Economy Conference from May 17 to 19.
