About this listen

Local events are the heartbeat of the South Shoalhaven—but what goes into creating something truly memorable?

In this energising and practical episode, host Gemma Hart is joined by Kate, Leoni, and Matt from Community Connect South Shoalhaven for a deep dive into how local events come to life. From school newsletters to digital signage and AAA feedback sessions, they unpack what it takes to host events that engage, connect, and reflect the spirit of our region.

You’ll learn:

· Why collaboration makes events more impactful

· The best ways to promote events (without spending a cent)

· How to recruit volunteers and build lasting community energy

· Tips to avoid burnout and boost your event’s success

Featuring real-world stories—from the Community Expo and Spirit of Christmas Festival to youth-led MuckUp events—this episode is a guide to making events shine, no matter the size.

“When people come together around a shared passion, it doesn’t feel like work—it feels like purpose.”
