Community and Sporting Clubs Showcase Event - Expressions of Interest

On this page: 

The City of Wanneroo seeks expressions of interest from local community groups interested in leading the coordination and delivery of a community-led Wanneroo Community and Sporting Clubs Showcase event.

The event’s aim is to celebrate and showcase community and sporting groups within Wanneroo and provide a platform for groups to converge and showcase their activities, services, and programs while promoting their purpose and membership.

Overview

As a large and diverse local government, the City of Wanneroo has many community groups and sporting clubs that provide valuable activities, services and programs for the community. To raise awareness and provide an event enabling these groups to attract new membership and volunteers, it is proposed that a community-led event is staged to highlight local community and sporting groups, by displaying and demonstrating their activities and services.

The event should be open to all interested community and sporting groups based in Wanneroo and could potentially include market stalls, club demonstrations, performances, and opportunities for groups to promote.
