Nobody really prepares you for what comes with being the supervisor.

One day you're part of the crew. The next, you've got five stacks of paperwork on your desk, the contractor's gone AWOL, and Dave's called in sick.

It's a different set of challenges, and that's exactly what David Bell and Lowanna Dunn will be sharing practical advice on when they kick off the first Supervisors Workshop on 19 August.

👀 Any guesses where they'll be heading first?

Clue: This town is connected to its sister town by a 1,097-metre bridge that was once one of Australia's longest. It's also known as the Sugar Capital.
