Congratulations to the 2023 VicParks Award winners

It was an honour to join with caravan park and associate members, life members and industry legends, to celebrate another year of outstanding achievement and resilience at the 2023 YMH VicParks Gala Dinner at The Goods Shed, Ballarat Wednesday night. 

The Gala Dinner, incorporating the presentation of our annual industry awards, was the culmination of three fabulous days of workshops, masterclasses, presentations, panel discussions, trade exhibition and social events that made up the 2023 VicParks Conference in Ballarat.    

Thank you to everyone who invested in themselves and their businesses during the conference and for supporting this association’s vision of being a critical partner in members’ success.

Congratulations to our 2023 VicParks Awards winners!
