Australia Day in Cabonne 2025

Next date: Sunday, 26 January 2025 | 08:00 AM

All Cabonne towns and villages will host Australia Day activities this year.

Food, refreshments, competitions, family fun, and award presentations will feature at events across the shire.

There will also be free entry to all of the pools in Cabonne for the day!

This year, Cabonne's Australia Day Ambassador is Mr. Warren Potent, a name synonymous with excellence. Warren has competed in five Olympic Games, earning a bronze medal in Beijing 2008, and has been ranked the world’s number one prone rifle shooter six times. His accolades include multiple gold medals at World Championships and Commonwealth Games, making him Australia’s most successful rifle shooter in history.

But Warren’s contributions extend far beyond his extraordinary sporting achievements. He has dedicated himself to mentoring young Australians, sharing his skills and values to inspire the next generation. Through his volunteer work with the Beacon Foundation, Warren helps underprivileged high school students gain the knowledge and confidence they need to succeed. His journey is a testament to the power of hard work, resilience, and community spirit.
