THE Key to the Southern Downs is now taking pride of place at Australian netball star Laura Geitz’s home after a presentation at Allora on Saturday. Southern Downs Regional Council mayor Peter Blundell presented the Commonwealth Games Gold Medallist and Australian Netball Team captain with the "key to the region" as part of a special Laura Geitz Celebration Day at the Allora Sports Museum. Before the event, Allora-born Laura said she was excited about attending the celebration day and though the key had been described to her, she was keen to see it in its presentation casing. “This will be a great honour and an opportunity to meet Southern Downs people,” she said. “There’s no better feeling than having recognition from your home town, and I’m very grateful to receive the key,” she said. After the presentation ceremony, council hosted a special celebration afternoon tea at the Commercial Hotel, just over the road from the museum. The Allora Men’s Shed group held a sausage sizzle next to the hotel for anyone wanting to stay for an afternoon barbecue. Cr Glyn Rees, who lives in Allora and has known Laura and her family for many years, was master of ceremonies. He said it was a proud moment for Allora and for Southern Downs Regional Council. “Handing over the key to the
