Greater Shepparton City Council is calling for nominations from community members to be part of the Sports Hall of Fame Advisory Committee.
The committee will oversee a Sports Hall of Fame for the Greater Shepparton region, recommend inductees to Council and celebrate their achievements through an official induction ceremony.
