Greg Queenan

Ms JENNY AITCHISON (Maitland—Minister for Regional Transport and Roads) (18:32): I congratulate Greg Queenan on being named Maitland's Citizen of the Year at the 2025 Australia Day Awards. Greg's lifelong dedication to music, particularly through his leadership and mentorship with City of Maitland Pipes and Drums, has made a profound impact on our community. For over 50 years Greg has inspired generations of musicians. His work with City of Maitland Pipes and Drums has helped preserve and promote the proud tradition of pipe band music. Through his leadership, the band has flourished with regular performances across the region, including hosting the 2024 NSW State Pipe Band Championships. What a fantastic event that was. Greg's tireless efforts have ensured that the tradition of Scottish pipe music remains alive and well in Maitland and also across the rest of our great State. On behalf of the Maitland community, I congratulate Greg on this well‑earned recognition and thank him for his incredible service to music.
