What a Blast!
The Murray Now State of the Region 2010 Dinner was a sensational evening!

The launch of the Murray Now Regional Profile 2010 showcased how robust, diverse and economically advantaged our region is.
Our Murray Now Team who worked passionately to bring the Profile together can relax for only a short time before we start work on the 2011 publication, so expect a phone call!
A special thank you to our partners; Murray CMA, Quest Apartments Albury and our key supporters Johnsons MME, Telstra Country Wide and 1494 2AY
Please enjoy this edition which features testimonials and pictures of the evening. Our next Murray Now issue will feature more business and relocation stories, getting us all thinking about just what a great region the Murray is, after all … “It’s the Place”
