John Bowen
Our own John Bowen is among 16 nominees for Great lakes Shire’s Citizen of the Year Award. John was the inaugural chairman of the Stroud Community Lodge, a residential aged care facility, which is one of the largest employers in the region.
He spent 28 years chairing meetings of the lodge as well as driving the lodge bus before retiring late last year. John is happiest when he is helping others.
Great Lakes Council’s Australia Day festivities and presentation of awards will be held at Club Forster from 10.30am with a free morning tea.

This is really good to see he has always been an important part of Stroud.
Good luck Mr Bowen.
I hope everyone in Stroud has a great Australia Day.
