Capricorn’s 50th celebrations are kicking into top gear with its 50 Years Strong-themed Gala Dinner and Tradeshows

These events are an opportunity for Capricorn Members to get together, swap war stories, and let their hair down.
For me, these celebrations will be bittersweet as they are the last Capricorn events I will attend as Group Chief Executive Officer before I step down in December 2024 and hand over the reins to Brad Gannon. I hope to see many of the Capricorn community there.
The 2024 Capricorn Rising Stars Winner was also announced this month, a highlight of Capricorn’s year. A huge congratulations to Megan Toia, a 21-year-old second-year apprentice from regional Western Australia. Megan beat an inspirational shortlist of five finalists, impressing judges with her commitment to her trade and her passion for the industry.
Megan comes from the wheat and sheep farming community of Moora, 200km north of Perth, and travels 60km to work at Badginarra Motors each morning. As I come to the end of my career it is both reassuring and pleasing to see how enthusiastic and driven the young people just starting their careers are about the automotive industry.
The Capricorn Rising Stars Award is a part of Capricorn that I am very proud of, and I look forward to watching it continue to highlight future leaders of the industry.
The 50 Years Strong celebrations continue, with a range of stories from the Capricorn Community now available to watch at cap.coop/50. These videos have been created to capture our community and I believe they do a great job of capturing the spirit of Capricorn.
