THE PURPLE PEOPLE WINNERS ARE…

Updated: Mar 15, 2022

✦ Our CEO, Veronica Lind was given the hard task of selecting the winners in the various categories of the 2022 Purple People Day Awards.

She told us,“ I had the pleasure to judge the 38th Wauchope Lasiandra Festivals Purple People Day competition this year. Brilliant-Online has been supporting the Wauchope Lasiandra Festival, Wauchope businesses and the community for the past year in the lead up to the festival. It is heartening to see how some businesses are involving the community to show off how proud they are to be a part of their town Wauchope.”

Veronica said an example was TG’s Child Care at Riverbreeze; who showed us they are supporting their families who have local businesses, and they also encouraged their families to discuss with their children what they love about Wauchope and the Lasiandra Festival.


 
She added, “The local newsagency had cut out Lasiandra flowers and people were writing their wishes and pinning them onto their glass window. The Village Preschool had a sign up that said “Honk, if you love Wauchope”; cars where honking their horns all day! Wauchope Creative Hub encouraged budding artists to submit art entries in the Purple Rain theme. Even the Vietnamese ladies at Spectacular Beauty made their own pop-up Lasiandra Flower greeting cards.”

And like Lasiandra Secretary Chrissy said, “Brilliant-Online has brought the Wauchope Lasiandra Festival to another level.”

Brilliant-online looks forward to our involvement next year.
