Australian Country Spinners (ACS) got more than they bargained for when Lucie Van Aken participated in a Management Training course. Sixty-three-year old Lucie, who comes from a non-English speaking background, not only successfully completed the course but also gained promotion within ACS to the front-line management role of Night Shift Line Supervisor. She then went on to receive the Woman of Achievement Award from the Wangaratta Business & Professional Women's Association.

Congratulations Lucie!
