The annual ACP Connections conference ended with a 70s themed dinner and party last night at The Park Hyatt in Melbourne. From early in the evening the dance floor was packed with newsagents, decked out in full 1970s gear. Newsagents were having a good time … I mean really having a good time and not faking it as often happens at awards dinners.
I’ve been to many Connections conference dinners and this was the best. It was an excellent theme, a good theme, on a good day for relaxing and unwinding.
What made the night was that formalities were kept to a minimum. Successful newsagents were recognised, wonderful food was eaten and too many wigs were worn and plenty of dodgy moves were strutted on the dance floor.
A fitting end to a day of extraordinary change for newsagents.
Kudos to Nextra Chermside for taking out the ACP newsagent of the year on top of the ANF newsagent of the year.
