08 Nov Coasties Contest Winners

Thank you to everyone who entered the Coasties Contest!

We were on a mission to discover the heartbeat of our community, and so many Coasters answered our call.

The time and effort poured into crafting the hundreds of submissions totally blew us away, and we are brimming with gratitude for all the openhearted insights we received sharing what “community” means to residents and their families.

Whether it was an important group of people, a cherished tradition, a place that ‘felt like home,’ or even a simple act of kindness, the Coasties Contest illuminated what makes the Sunshine Coast so special.

We’d also like to extend an extra special thank to our generous sponsors for helping us bring this all to life:
Sunshine Coast Credit Union
Coast Reporter
Odlum Brown

So, without further ado, we’re absolutely thrilled to announce our three winning entrants…
